This name is mentioned in the Qur'an.

كَتَبَ ٱللَّهُ لَأَغْلِبَنَّ أَنَا۠ وَرُسُلِىٓ ۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ قَوِىٌّ عَزِيزٌۭ
Living by this name
Say often: 'La hawla wa la quwwata illa billah', there is no power and no strength except with Allah; the Prophet (peace be upon him) called it a treasure of Paradise (Bukhari, Muslim). Pray: Ya Qawiyy, give me strength.
