It's the genitive of bóg, a masculine noun. Like English God, Polish Bóg also serves as the Supreme Being's name. Of course a feminine noun can be formed from bóg; it's bogini 'goddess' -- a common noun, not a name.

A related question is how Polish handles the concept of 'female Christian priest' (as you have in the Church of England).  'Priestess', I think, is unthinkable.
