Yes, Polaris will no longer be the North Star in around 12,000 years due to the Earth's axial precession, which causes the position of the North Star to change gradually over time. The next star to take its place as the North Star will be Gamma Cephei.

The north star has very little apparent rotation in the night sky because?

The North Star, Polaris, is not EXACTLY over the north pole; it is about six-tenths of a degree off. The alignment is COMPLETELY coincidental, and temporary; 2000 years ago, the Earth was not aligned with Polaris, and in another 1000 years or so, the difference will again become noticeable. Because of the discrepancy, a time-exposure photo of Polaris will show it making TINY circles in the sky around the true north pole. There is no corresponding star above the south pole; nothing is even especially close.
