Yes. They could have avoided "Council", as it was already used by the Council of Europe.

But does the problem exist in Hungarian, for instance?

In Hungarian, it's worse actually -- while the Council of the EU has a more sensible name, the other two differ in a single letter:

  • Európa Tanács
  • Miniszteri Tanács
  • Európai Tanács

...and it's worse in German than in English, too:

  • Europarat
  • Rat der Europäischen Union
  • Europäische Rat
