The bird is native from North America, if that's what you mean. Why it has so many different names... not a clue. Even in my country we have several names for that particular bird, depending on where you go to.
In the Malay Archipelago(Malaysia,Singapore,Malaysia/Brunei), this is called "ayam belanda" or "Dutch chicken". Presumably because the Dutch brought it over when they colonised parts of the Archipelago in the past. -guest passing through
