Americans called the British "Red Coats" or "Regulars" during the American Revolution.
It was the people of the 13 Colonies who fought for and gained their freedom; it was THEIR revolution, their victory and their freedom. Now, it so happens that the colonies were provoked by the British government, which later learned a thing or two from the events of 1775-83, but that doesn't make it their revolution. In fact, the thinking behind it is odd. Would it occur to you to call the slaves' rebellion in Haiti 'French', for example? Yes, it's true. British policy changed following the American Revolution, but it SHOULD be called the American Revolution, because it was the AMERICANS who revolted.
