No, it's not. How you pronounce, or name, the letters is different for
lowercase and uppercase.
A Ay
a short a, like in apple, or I'd like to read "a" book
B Bee
b short b, like in bottle
C Cee
c short c, like in crease
Likewise for the rest of the alphabet. "A" and "a" are said completely
differently from each other.
The traditional alphabet song does the capital letter names, it doesn't
do how the lower case letters are pronounced in a word.

George Orwell's '1984' was supposed to be a warning against tyranny, not
a set of instructions for supposedly democratic governments.
