What abstract names do you have for God?
(lemmy.ml)
Excuse for horrible actions.
Not what I was looking for, but I did chuckle. Would probably look good on a t-shirt.
Sky Daddy or his more accurate title of „Fictional Tyrant with bad Temper“

The Big Lie.
Flying Spaghetti Monster.
Scammy McScam Man
"The Biggest Con of All Time"
- Random Chance
- Cause and Effect
Depending on the situation I guess.
I think, otherwise, the only time I invoke a higher power is when I swear :)
Sky Daddy.
The writers
The Universe
Imaginary Sky Man.

If you're talking specifically about the Jewish deity, I generally use "Yahweh". As that is the name ascribed to him in Jewish mythology. If you're speaking of a more general deity, I tend to use "RNG". This being the acronym for the "Random Number God".

I like Bo Burnham's titles (both from the song Rant):
"The Blue-balled Anti-masturbator" and "The Great All-loving F*ggot-hater"
Edit: the instance removed the hate speech (which I was simply quoting and don't condone) so I censored it
The Great Green Arkleseizure
Hey you sass that hoopy, atlasraven31, there's a frood who really knows where his towel is.
Nature.
The Great Non-Being
Lain
Asshole
Deadbeat Allfather
Holey Ghost
Sky Wizard
Santa Claus
Hypothetical higher power
Haha that's very concrete and abstract at the same time.
Lol that’s what I was going for
I mean, I do technically feel all of these names implied when talking about God, but none of them I "call" God. I guess "supreme being" would do it, I use that often even in church. I'm surprised your list doesn't have the likes of "grand unified theory", "the great white hole", "the sun", "sol invictus", "the man behind the pixels", "time incarnate", or "Morgan Freeman".
Who?

Sky Wizard.
The Logos
It's been a while, but I think Max Barry came up with Global Unified Deity in Jennifer Government (great book, by the way)
Dave
ET
Imaginary friend
The origin point of the universe, if we lean into the secular sense
al-Aḥad ("The One") is nice. It's one of the 99 names of God given in the Qur-an. Coincidently, it's close to my younger cat's nickname: "One" (short for "Little One").
His Nibs
Since I just learned the word jocular right now, my answer is Jocular.
"All I said was that piece of halibut was fit for Jocular".

“Divinity”. “Source”

Ah yes, The Potter too.
