No. Jove is a Latin name for a god in their pantheon of gods. Almighty God refers to El-Shaddai, the God of the Israelites. The word "god" is a generic term to refer to deity. However, God is not a "name" at all (unlike "Jove"), even though we capitalize it as though it were a proper name. No one knows God's real, actual name. When Moses asked what God's name was, he was told, "I AM WHO I AM" (or I will be who I will be). To know the name is to have control over the bearer of that name, and no person can have control over God by knowing God's name. This is also why parents have contol over their children. Genesis indicates that the man and woman must leave their parents to be united--they leave the control of the ones who named them, and become controllers of the next generation that they name and raise, and so on through the generations.
