Believe it or not, there’s actually places in the US where it’s called a hamburg and others were it’s called a burger. There’s more regional variation than you’d think, but I realize this is just a Simpsons joke.

Because it’s an evolution of the Hamburg steak, which was named for the city of Hamburg.
