If it was called The batgirl, it wouldn't be popular?

As opposed to, say, just Batman? He is called "the" Batman because it is less personal and less Human. Many of the Gotham city criminals have a fear of Batman. They see him as a superhuman creature that always finds a way of defeating them, so they give him this inhuman title of "the Batman".

Because it distinguishes itself from what had come before. That's why the Andrew Garfield Spider-Man movies were called The Amazing Spider-Man and Tom Holland's were Spider-Man and a subtitle, because the Tobey Maguire movies already used just the name Spider-Man and sequels had numerical continuations ("2", "3").
