Etymology
Corresponding to Arabic *اَلْإِلَات (*alʔilāt), possibly an earlier or alternative variant of Arabic اَللَّات (al-lāt, “Allat”), itself hypothesized to be a contraction of a feminine form of الإِلٰه (al-ʔilāh, “the god”) (now obsoleted by the suffixed form الإِلٰهَة (al-ʔilāha, “the goddess”)). Compare with the name of the Islamic god, اَلله (allāh, “Allah”), itself theorized to be a contraction of الإِلٰه (al-ʔilāh). More at إِلٰه (ʔilāh).
