The qwerty keyboard was named after the first six letters of the keyboard (starting from the top left as you would normally read), which just happened to be QWERTY. Thus, the name 'qwerty keyboard'.

The qwerty keyboard also greatly improved the typing speed of everyone who typed on it and was willing to learn the qwerty style of keyboarding.
