Is it true that Chopin's Minute Waltz is named for the fact that it takes one minute to play?

No. Multiple reference sources state the 'Minute Waltz' nickname means 'small' or 'miniature' and that the piece actually lasts longer than a minute, so the name does not come from a one-minute playing time.
