Unfortunately, the Church has little control over the name Catholic and it is hijacked all the time by groups that are NOT in union with Rome and, therefore, not truly Catholic. A few examples: The American Catholic Church, The American Charismatic Catholic Church, the Polish National Catholic Church. Calling oneself something does not make it so.
