Why do scientists use scientific names for organisms?
Scientists need to use scientific names for multiple reasons. Here are three of these reasons. First, it is to avoid confusion. You see, many organisms share a common name and differs from place to place. If scientists used the common names, it could lead to incorrect data. Another reason is that it describes an organism. It brings out the organisms certain characteristics. Lastly, Latin will not change over the years. As you most likely know, Latin is a dead language, or not spoken anymore. These are three reasons why Scientists use the scientific names instead of the common names.

What language is scientific names written in?
Scientific names of all living creatures are in Latin. Occasionally a Greek word will be used, or a "latinized" word will be created if none exists.

The scientific name consists of the genus and species, the last two categories in the taxonomical classification of the living organism in question.
Why are names of scientists written in Latin?
A 'dead' language was needed, so that there could be no doubt about the names - there are pet names and official names for animals in most languages, so it can be hard to get a good translation from one modern language into several other modern languages. Latin was the chosen dead language because it was and is quite well known by educated people in Europe, which was the base for scientific development at the time.
