Why do people say LA FIZ and not ALLAH HAFIZ?

Everyone i know says "Allahafiz", I've always been brought up to say "khudafiz", even tho my parents say "Allahafiz" now....

Ditto, it’s been like an unintentional transition from Khuda Hafiz to Allah Hafiz, at first saying Allah Hafiz felt weird now Khuda Hafiz feels too much of a mouthful.

I don’t really like either I just say salaam for both hello and goodbye, I’m even if you can’t be bothered to pronounce the ‘3laykum’, you can just say “Salaam”, it’d be better and more universally known across the Ummah.
