Etymology: Kyphosus: Greek, kyphos = bent (Ref. 45335);  pacificus: Named for its distribution in the Pacific Ocean..

Issue
Kyphosus sandwicensis (Sauvage, ) has been considered as an older name for this species, at least for the Hawaiian population (Ref. 54980). Further study of the genus may show that the name Kyphosus sandwicensis will replace the name Kyphosus pacificus elsewhere in the central and western Pacific (Ref. 86689).
