England, Wales and Scotland are part of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. Six of the 32 counties in the island of Ireland are called Northern Ireland and are also part of the United Kingdom. The rest of Ireland is not part of the UK, and is a separate, independent country called 'Ireland', or 'Eire' in Irish, or the 'Republic of Ireland' if one needs to differentiate between it and Northern Ireland. Officially, the country is simply called 'Ireland'.
The full name of the UK is The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland and it consists of England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland. The short names are United Kingdom and Britain. It includes the island of Great Britain plus 6 of the 32 counties of the island of Ireland.
Amendment
It includes Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland and England. If one states, as above, "...the island of Great Britain plus 6 of the 32 counties of the island of Ireland..." it misses out the inner and outer Hebrides, Orkney, Shetland etc.
