No.

Lieutenant commander is an O-4, the equivalent of Major in the other branches. A commander is O-5, same as a lieutenant colonel in the other branches.

Equivalent ranks, navy given first:

O-1 Ensign - Second Lieutenant

O-2 Lieutenant junior grade - First Lieutenant

O-3 Lieutenant - Captain

O-4 Lieutenant commander - Major

O-5 Commander - Lieutenant colonel

O-6 Captain - Colonel

O-7 Rear admiral, lower half - Brigadier general

O-8 Rear admiral, upper half - Major general

O-9 Vice Admiral - Lieutenant general

O-10 Admiral - General

O-11 there have only been ten officers of this rank, all WWII commanders - Admiral of the Fleet - General of the Army

Some claim that General Pershing and George Washington (by posthumous congressional action) held six-star rank, as General of the Armies. During Washington's service he was a Lieutenant general.

What do you call a commander of an English Warship?

The 'commander', a term not normally used, of a British (not 'English'!) warship is known as the 'commanding officer' or 'captain'. In this sense, the term, 'captain', does not refer to his rank, as this may vary from lieutenant (e.g. minesweeper), lieutenant commander (e.g. conventional submarine), commander (e.g. nuclear submarine), or captain (e.g. aircraft carrier).The second in command is known as the 'First Lieutenant'. On large vessels, where the captain holds the rank of captain, the first lieutenant usually then holds the rank of commander, and is then known as 'the Commander' rather than 'First Lieutenant'.
