Why is south America often referred to as Latin America?

Because "almost all" countries from Mexico to Patagonia (in Argentina) speak a Latin language (the Latin languages are: Spanish, Portuguese, French, Italian and Romanian). There are small countries in Latin America that do not speak a Latin language like the French Guiana and Guyana. Of course in the Caribbean a whole bunch of countries do not speak a Latin Language, but they are not included as "Latin America".
