I have one categorical dependent variable (non ordered) and several independent variables. Which regression model fits best here? Would it still be a multiple regression?

You can use a multivariable multinomial regression model.

It is multivariable because you have several independent variables.

It multinomial because the multinomial distribution can be used where the dependent variable is unordered categorical.
