Depends on what you mean by ''official'' - chloroform is accepted by IUPAC as a name of the compound Trichloromethane (which is its systematic name) - CHCl3.

As accepted by IUPAC, we may consider ''chloroform'' as the official name of the chemical.

Other names of chloroform are Methyl trichloride, Methane trichloride.
