I don't think he does. I think he's training her up, he has big plans for her.

A little OT, but if, in the books or the show, it's been explained how Littlefinger got the nickname, I can't remember. Can anyone help?

Yeah:
He was small as a child, and he's from a lesser house on the Fingers in the Vale of Arryn.
His father befriended Lord Hoster Tully and fostered him at Riverrun, and the older highborn boys named him Littlefinger as an insult.

Cersei is God
“The larger the group, the more toxic, the more of your beauty as an individual you have to surrender for the sake of group thought. And when you suspend your individual beauty you also give up a lot of your humanity. You will do things in the name of a group that you would never do on your own. Injuring, hurting, killing, drinking are all part of it, because you've lost your identity, because you now owe your allegiance to this thing that's bigger than you are and that controls you.” - George Carlin
