Lord
Master
Rabbi
Abba Father
Heavenly Father
The list can go on and on.
Shiela S, you obviously did not read the question properly. The "g" is capitalized in "God"; it is a grammatical rule to capitalize the name(s) and/or word(s) referring to the God of Judaism and Christianity. For all other gods, as you can see, it is a lower case letter unless specifically using their name--i.e. Allah, Mother Nature, etc.

Some of the biblical names of God are "Jehovah or Yahweh" (Exodus 3:14, lit. "I AM"), "Elohim" (the Hebrew word for 'god', i.e. Gen. 1), and "Adonai," which means "master" or "lord." "Jehovah" is often joined in usage to the word "elohim," as in Gen. 15:2. It is also joined to other words. For example, Jehovah-jireh which means "the Lord will provide" (Gen. 22:13-14); Jehovah-rapha which means "The Lord who heals" (Exodus 15:26); Jehovah-shalom which means "the Lord our peace" (Judges 6:24); and Jehovah-tsidkenu, which is "the Lord our righteousness" (Jer. 23:6). In the NT, God is known as the "Father" (John 17) and the "Word" (John 1:1,14), etc.1
God is Sovereign. He is in control of all things and supreme over all things. No one is more powerful than Him and He answers to no one. He had no beginning and has no end (Psalm 90:2). God decrees what will occur; that is, all things occur according to His plan (Acts 2:23. But this is not to say that God is the author of evil. Instead, in His sovereign plan, He allowed for it to occur.
God is the creator of the Universe (Gen. 1; Isaiah 44:24; John 1:1-3; Col. 1:16-17), not a part of it. God is the redeemer who became a man in Christ Jesus (John 1:1,14; Col. 2:9; Phil. 2:5-8; Titus 2:13). God is our Savior.
God is forgiving (Eph. 1:7; Psalm 86:5), merciful (Exodus 34:6; Psalm 67:1; James 5:11), holy (Isaiah 6:3; Rev. 4:8), eternal (Psalm 90:2; 1 Tim. 1:17), and perfect (1 Kings 8:27; Psalm 139).

There are so many gods with so many names from so many languages around the globe, it is impossible to provide a complete list.
I see some other responders have proffered a few of the most popular and well-known monikers. I won't bother jumping into the fray, except to say; with all those aliases, you'd think he was up to something suspicious! ;-)

Jealous:
"For thou shalt worship no other god: for the Lord, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God." (Exodus 34:14)
Many think that it is Jehovah, but it is not. The name "Jehovah" is a Christian mistake. It was forbidden to pronounce the name "YHWH" (Yahweh), and readers of the Hebrew scriptures were supposed to say "Adonai" in its place. "In written texts the vowels of Adonai were combined with the consonants YHWH to remind readers to pronounce Adonai instead of Yahweh. The incorrect hybrid, 'Jehovah,' arose from Christian misunderstanding in the late Middle Ages."(Harper's Bible Dictionary)

God has a number of titles. But he has only one personal name. Although the divine name appears in Hebrew manuscripts almost 7,000 times, it has been removed completely in most modern Bibles. In the King James Version, God's name appears 4 times.
Ex. 6:3: "And I used to appear to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob as God Almighty, but as respects my name Jehovah I did not make myself known to them." NWT
Ps. 83:18: " That people may know that you, whose name is Jehovah, you alone are the Most High over all the earth." NWT
Isa. 12:2: "Look! God is my salvation. I shall trust and be in no dread; for Jah Jehovah is my strength and [my] might, and he came to be the salvation of me.” NWT
Isa. 26:4: "Trust in Jehovah, you people, for all times, for in Jah Jehovah is the Rock of times indefinite." NWT

"For thou shalt worship no other god: for the Lord, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God." (Exodus 34:14)
Well, seems to me if The Lord is the only God, he wouldn't have to be jealous, now would he? Seems to me that that statement alone would be giving proof to other Gods. Silly Christians.
