Calvinism is named after John Calvin, where Lutheran is after Martin Luther. While there were many similarities between, the two of them vehemently disagreed on many topics.
BTW this a religion question, not a special education question. Might get more answers if in the right category.

You're pretty ignorant for someone called "Calvinist".
Lutherans are a different grouping than Calvinists. Lutherans follow the teachings of Martin Luther. Calvinists follow the teachings of John Calvin, who was a successor to Luther.

Because there is Lutheran, too. And Calvin was after Luther, so it would have been him working from Luther's original teachings.
