The original Hamburger sandwich was made from chicken, in Hamburg Germany.
The American hamburger was arguably invented at Louis' Lunch in New Haven Connecticut.

It originated near Hamburg, Germany. Nomadic people traveled and ate something that was actually first more like Steak Tar Tar (raw) but then there were so many diseases that they added heat to it and it became the hamburger. Food Network is probably your best source for this information, I am just giving you what I remember from the show they did.

It comes from the city of origin. Reportedly Hamburg, Germany. Hence the name Hamburger.
