FYI: actually hot-dogs are made with Frankfurter sausages. And not of dogs ;-)

If it is true that the hamburger was named after its place of origin - Hamburg, Germany - then that answers the question. Besides, hamburger sounds more appetizing than cowburger. Burgers made of pig are usually called porkburgers, where we live.

Hamburgers are named after the city of Hamburg in Germany. the nice and comfortable dogs grew to become into initially caller a Frankfurter, after Frankfurt in Germany. The sandwich grew to become into named after the Earl of Sandwich. curiously he asked for a slice of meat between 2 slices of bread. That way he might desire to maintain playing whilst he ate.

The name hamburger has nothing to do with the ingredients....has to do with the region where this food originated.....which would be the German area called Hamburg....
