You are talking about some future names, not the existing ones.No, the current name of the UK is: The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. It was previously The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland. "Great Britain" in the name refers to the physical island, it doesn't refer to the old Kingdom of GB. They voted whether to leave the UK, not GB.
The make-up of the United Kingdom will change, but it will still be the union of two kingdoms.
