Let's say they are a Christian.

Ask them what is their God's name.

The word for God in Hebrew is Elohim. First usage is in Genesis 1:1.

Ask them if they know that.

In Hebrew it is Yahweh. In English. if it is ever used, it normally is Jehovah (Exodus 6:3).

I would say most people do not know their God/god/Gods/gods.
