The golden Alexander plant, scientifically known as Zizia aurea, was named by the botanist Thomas Nuttall in 1818. The genus name "Zizia" is derived from the name of a botanist, while "aurea" means golden in Latin, reflecting the plant's bright yellow flowers. The common name "golden Alexander" likely refers to its vibrant color and resemblance to the plant Alexanders (Smyrnium olusatrum), which has historical significance in herbal medicine.
