Did God change by being called the Creator?

Q213 · The Wondrous Creator, the Guardian of the World

Since the beginning of time, “God is love.” His love is complete and shared within the Holy Trinity, without any need for the creatures He created. God was complete before the creation. Such titles as the Creator, the Manager of Creation, and the Master of Creation merely reflect His loving nature without adding anything to Him, or to His goodness and holiness. God was, and always will be free. He can create or not create. He is not caused to act by another, beyond His essence; but performs what He Himself freely wills.
