nope.

"While "countries" is the commonly used descriptive term, owing to the a lack of a formal British constitution, and the protracted and complex history of the formation of the United Kingdom, the countries of the UK have no 'official' appellation."

the official name is the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.
Britain is the island of which England, Scotland and Wales are.
UK is a Union of Countries
