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.

All mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted, there is no point trying
to privately email me, I will only read messages posted to the public lists.

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