I'm sorry for the English (and yes, I mean the English here), but every time I say "good god" I imagine it being uttered by an Englishman who has a monocle, a mustache, and mutton chops (as in the beard, not as in the meat).
As he says "good god", his monocle falls into a tea cup that he is holding in his right hand. The saucer is held by the left hand.
He also lives during the colonial era.
I know it is a caricature.

Good god!
Good golly!
Okay, look at the two expressions above. According to #LanguageTool, golly can be considered offensive. It is a euphemism for "god." How is it any more offensive than saying "Good good?"
That seems rather arbitrary. Especially since "golly" and "good golly" were words in common usage in TV shows in the US in the 1950-1960.
