They aren't, because there is only one Solar system. The system we live in is named after the Star named Sol. We refer to it as the Sun. A Solar type of system is one that is like ours. Scientist who look at space using various methods and instruments now have an understanding of how a Solar type sysatem looks and can recognize "Fixed Stars" like our Sol that may have planets. They have found one recently.
