    No you're wrong, "Allah" and not "Alla" is the name for God in Islam and "Elah" is the name for God in Arabic. "Alla" is not a name for God at all.

    Allah. Yes I did. Didn't you?

    Did you think it was Jehovah?

    For details on the God's names see here -

    Yes it is. But they usually spell it as "Allah" when using the Roman alphabet.
