What he means is: You cannot have Allah (male), Allahess (female) or Allahs (plural).
The word Allah always retains that one form: ALLAH.
You can indeed transform ilah (god) gramatically, but not Al-ilah, which reads ALLAH.

The word Allah is unique among the names of God in all the languages of mankind, in that it was never applied to any being other than God. The pre-Islamic Arabs used it to refer to the Supreme Being, and never applied it to any of the other things they worshiped. Other names of God used by mankind, such as "lord", "god", "khuda", etc. have all also been used for beings other than God. They have meanings which refer to some particular attribute of God, but "Allah" is the name which refers to the Being Himself as His personal name.

You do know that concept is similar to other religious figures that predate Jesus. So they all could be saviors.
