Yes, the Eastern Roman Empire is commonly referred to as the Byzantine Empire, especially in modern historical contexts. This term is used to distinguish it from the earlier Roman Empire centered in the West.

Empress Irene was the empress of what she called the Roman Empire, and suddenly she got news that King Charles of the Franks was calling himself emperor of the Roman Empire. Of course, she was not happy about this.
Charlemagne's empire was called the Empire of the Roman People. This was rather inconvenient, because the East Roman Empire was still operating and WA also called the Empire of the Roman People.
