Why are foods made from chicken just called chicken, but foods made from cows or pigs have so many names?

Because not all cuts are the same. Even you should know the difference between chicken wings, thighs, and breasts.

chicken parts do have names: thigh, breast, leg quarter, etc. But the anatomy of a chicken and a pig (for example) is different so you won’t have a “hock” or “loin” in the chicken.

I hope I understood your question and thus know, I answered to the full capabilities of my mental facilities
