By that definition Super Mario Bros 3 is also an RPG.
Sorry no, if health is your only statistic and the name the only thing you can freely influence and the only interaction you have with other chracters is listening to what they say to you I don´t too many RPG Elements there. I´m happy to give the second game a pass but otherwise I´m having terrible flashbacks of how angry I was when magazines were saying Secret Of Mana was “like Zelda”. That´s just not true.
It might be part of the family, but that part that doesn´t really get invited to celebrations and reunions and neither party minds it much.
I guess Maniac Mansion is survival horror because you can hide from hostile characters…
