Pubs and burgers

Why do all pubs that tart up their food menu (I hesitate to say 'gastropubs' as gastropubs surely really means pubs that have proper chefs, whereas I just mean ones that don't call a spade a spade) insist on naming their burgers after the pub? For example, 'The Greyhound Burger' or the 'Duke of Wellington Burger', are two that I have seen recently, but most pubs do it. They don't feel the need to name their lasagne, or steak and chips.
