Well that's like asking why did Nickelback write Rockstar

Beethoven wrote the Moonlight sonata for his love, Countess Giulietta Guicciardi, who was 16 and beautiful, and one of his piano students.

Beethoven himself did NOT create that name. In his lifetime, it was simply Piano Sonata No. 14. The title came about in the 1830s from a music critic named Rellstab, a few years after Beethoven died.

A German music critic compared the first movement of the piece to the shimmering of moonlight on a lake, and the name has stuck ever since. Beethoven himself did NOT use the name.
