Nobody really knows the exact dates since the Incas relied on oral tradition and Spanish written chronicles weren't entirely truthful. The Incas also viewed time (past, present, and future) as interconnected and definitely didn't keep great records using the Roman calendar. So yes, you're probably right. They came from the many other South American tribes so it's difficult to pinpoint exactly when they started saying "Inca."
