Yes. The fighting was mostly on Breed's Hill, which is lower than Bunker Hill and closer to Boston, and is in between Bunker Hill and Boston. The Patriots were supposed to take a position on top of Bunker Hill but when they got there they realized Breed's Hill was better, so they pushed on to that neighboring hill.
Within a few days after the battle patriot printers printed up a "broadside", a single broadsheet description of the battle and sent that off by express riders to spread word of the battle. They incorrectly identified the scene of the fighting as Bunker Hill in this broadside, and the error took root.
