Yes it was "officially" recognized, but they had been called the Yankees for a number of years.

The U.S. declared independence in 1776, but wasn't officially recognized until 1783. We still have our centennial's on the '76.

I think the Yankees centennial was much more important as well as concrete. It was officially celebrated in 2003.
