What is the scientific name for alien?

Answer 1

If you are referring to the taxonomic classification of an organism not of Earth, there is no specific name for all organisms not originating from Earth, just as there is no specific name for all organisms originating from Earth. There are, as of yet, no confirmed organisms from other planets*, so none have yet been given nomenclatures.

If you are asking for a more technical term or definition for alien, the Merriam-Webster Unabridged Dictionary defines alien as:
