Well, in the new Joker movie (SPOILER ALERT), Arthur Fleck gets the name Joker because of what his idol, Murray Franklin, said about Arthur's failed comedy career on the Murray Franklin show. In one specific line he says, "Look at this joker." Then I think Arthur just stuck with the name afterwards.

What is the name of Joker's wife?

Harley Quinn is the Joker's only romantic interest in the comicsAlso, the Joker in the comic strip "The Killing Joke", he has a pregnant wife named JeannieThere are too many strips from different creators that have the Joker having a wife and family before he goes "super-sane"There is no definite backstory----------------------------------------Actually, the Joker has no romantic interest in Harley at all. When it was decided that he was a sociopath instead of a psychopath, it didn't make sense for him to form a loving bond with a woman, like in the non-canon Legends of the Dark Knight story "Going Sane," in which his depiction was like a setback to the Golden & Bronze ages of comics. In the latest origin story "Lovers & Madmen" which is not told by the Joker's point of view, the Joker was a nomadic gun-for-hire & there was no mention of a wife. In the canceled "Gotham Knights" series, the Joker paid the Riddler to find out what happened to Jeannie, but it was faux pas, because it made a reference to an origin story as if it were official, & the fact that no one living has ever come forth to the police with clues to the Joker's identity, it would make sense that if he'd had a wife, he'd have killed her himself. In the end, the only person the Joker has any kind of bond with is Batman himself.
