The last song the bassist of
the English space rock band Hawkwind, Ian Fraser Kilmister (better known as
Lemmy), wrote for that group (place of action was the Hyatt hotel in American
West Hollywood) is called Motorhead.
When Lemmy took the road of independence and started his own band in 1975, he took the title of that last Hawkwind recording with him, adding an umlaut to the second 'o'. To make things more confusing he also recorded the song Motorhead with his new band Motörhead.

Johnny 'Guitar' Watson wrote a song about it in 1952: Motorhead Baby.
