No Muslims deny this.

"God" is not the best translation for the word "Allah"...that's why many Muslims use the word "Allah" instead of it ...simply because the word "God" has a plural "Gods"& has a female name "Goddess". In Islam we believe in Allah as the only God, only one, no partner, no similar, no son.....etc.

Some Muslims may deny that Allah means God because they may believe that Allah is a specific and unique name for God in Islam, distinguishing Him from other concepts or understandings of God. They may view any other translation of Allah as a dilution of the specific understanding of God in Islam. It is important to note that the Arabic term Allah is widely recognized and used by Muslims and non-Muslims alike to refer to God in the Arabic language.

Who do the Muslims call their God?

Found this for a fuller explanation what the word Allah means:"Allah" is GOD's Name, "Elaw" means "GOD" in Aramaic: How can they be the same?This is the argument that I received: How can the Arabic "Allah" equal to the Aramaic "Elaw", when "Allah" is only a Name for GOD Almighty in Arabic, while "Elaw" actually means "GOD"? "Allah" does not mean "GOD" in Arabic, does it?The response is actually quite simple: "Elaw", or "ilah" in both Aramaic and Arabic respectively are derived from the mother word "Allah". In Islam, GOD Almighty has 99 Names/Attributes: Most Merciful, The Great, Most Gracious, etc... "Allah" is one of those Holy Names/Attributes. Muslims often refer to GOD Almighty as "Allah", because it is not only His Holy Name, but it also means that He is the Supreme GOD. That is why some English translators of the Noble Quran such as Abdullah Yusuf Ali (may Allah Almighty bless him and rest his soul. Ameen) translate "Allah" in the Arabic Quran as "God" in the English translation for some Noble Verses.To further prove that "Allah" in Arabic means the Supreme GOD Almighty,
