Triceratops is a scientific name - dinosaurs don't really have common names, although their genus names are used to commonly refer to them. The best example is Tyrannosaurus rex - Tyrannosaurus is the genus name and rex the species name. There are two species of Triceratops, Triceratops horridus and T. porosus.
Some suggest that Triceratops fossils are actually the fossils of young Torosaurus. However, Triceratops were extremely common and existed before Torosaurus did. If Torosaurus were adult Triceratops, their should be fossils of Torosaurus that were as old as the oldest fossils of Triceratops. Thus, I don't think that Torosaurus was the same as Triceratops.
