Why is it called a salamander?

Not really sure, but I'd guess it's because the fire is the bottom similar to the re/orange belly of a salamander. Or possibly because the food goes under similar to the you find salamanders under things? It's just what I've always heard them called in the restaurant industry, but is plenty or weird jargon there.
