You're getting confused between the geographical feature and the political entity. Do you think an Englishman prior to 1707 would have called himself British, just because his nation was on that island? Do you think a Scotsman following independence would call himself British, because his nation lies partly on the island?
Do you call yourself European, because geographically you're in Europe?
