I think American Football is named after the ball itself, which is a called a football. (elongated instead of round so they thought it looked like a foot? lol)

thats a possibility...

I checked up on the history of it and it mentions nothing about how the founder or "Father of American Football" came to calling it American Football and how Football became soccer.
I mean we knew its origins were Rugby and Football, but for some reason in the history books as well it claims that Rugby's full name is Rugby football which is absurd by any means.

Then why is it that on TV listings and what not it says clearly Football and not soccer?
Because it's simple. Football originated in europe and it was called Football at the time and it will always be called Football.
