"Sim" is short for "simulation." There are many sim games other than Maxis' The Sims franchise; dating sim games that have become very popular Japan, for example. At any rate, the games are meant to be a sort of simulation of real life, so "sim" has become a common shorthand for these sorts of games including "Sim City," "Sim Copter," etc.
