I presume when you say different from those somewhere else, you mean in the architectural look.

Well while temple architecture in general is something that has been given in ancient Hindu texts, the actual architecture of temples have been influenced by the times. So a king who had a particular desire to build multiple steeples, would do so and that became the look and feel. At a point of time when marble was available in large quantities, everything in the temple had a good dose of marble used in it. At a point of time when Islamic leaders ruled parts of India, that affected the architecture of the temples (as long as they did not demolish it).

If you observe closely, there are significant differences in the mandirs within India - like those in Kerala, those in Rajasthan, those in Assam, and those in Kashmir are all quite signficantly different! But hey, as long as the worship of the supreme God is done with a sincere heart and mind, does it matter if the mandirs look different.....

Why is the mandir called the shree ram mandir?

In Hinduism God is called, remembered or worshipped by many names and those names are given according to the Powers of God. so mostly the Mandirs have been built for worshipping those deities and they are named after them. Since Lord Rama and Lord Krishna have also been known as a kind of incarnation of God, there are some mandirs or temples having their idols as well. In a mandir where the idols of Lord Rama have been installed, they are called Shri Ram Mandir. The Shri Ram Mandir in Ayodhya, in the State of Uttar Pradesh in India, is called the main Shri Ram Mandir
