I just re checked on the food reference website it states
they are named after the capital of Belguim where is thought they were first cultivated.

A quick google, and most sites said Belgium, a couple said somewhere in the East - Afghanistan & area


They were certainly named after Brussels Belgium but whether they originated there I don't know
