I'm visualizing Maps on kibana dashboard.  
in which I get particular results for pointer on mouse hover.

The behavior of the tooltips is to show up on hover and when the feature is clicked, they get "sticky" offering a few actions on the tooltip itself (like filter by value) and allowing to show more than one tooltip at the same time.

No, you can't change the tooltip behavior.

And if I have a key value pair as  
**Name : Ritika**  
and I want to show Only value **Ritika** in tooltip can I do that?

You mean customizing the aspect of the tooltip.

Unfortunately that's **not** possible either beyond the formatting of the value itself by the Data View field formatter.
