No, his Gods are, in his own words, "Older and Hungrier" than that of Moths and Butterflies. It's kinda vague, but here's my best go at it as is. His gods embody things like hardship, determination, disease, and death. They aren't kind beings, but they aren't needlessly cruel either. They want their subjects to struggle and fight and bleed because only adversity can forge a soul into something worth noticing... or maybe he's just a nutty old bug who had his brain melted by insecticides? A mystery for the ages.

As for the name thing, I'm going to say that he just picks up nicknames and titles from place to place. Get's a different one for each race, my idea for him is that he's kind of like a folk figure or urban legend. A creepy guy who hurts you for your own good.
