There's just one English alphabet (it starts with A and ends with Z), but if by "alphabet" you mean "style of font", then the most common English styles of font are serif, sans serif, and cursive, in that order. The most common individual fonts are probably Times New Roman (a serif font, extremely popular because it was the default font in Microsoft Word for over a decade), Helvetica (a sans serif font, of which Arial is a distorted copycat made by Microsoft to avoid licensing fees), and Tahoma (the sans serif font that Windows uses by default for text boxes and dialog boxes). As you can tell, the list of the most common fonts in English has been heavily influenced by Microsoft.
