''Albertosaurus'' was named by [[Henry Fairfield Osborn]] in a one-page note at the end of his 1905 description of ''Tyrannosaurus rex''.<ref>{{Cite journal |last=Osborn |first=H.F. |date=December 31, 1905 |title=Tyrannosaurus and other Cretaceous carnivorous dinosaurs |url=https://zenodo.org/record/1038222 |journal=Bulletin of the American Museum of Natural History |volume=21 |pages=259–265 |doi=10.5281/zenodo.1038222 |archive-date=March 23, 2023 |access-date=March 23, 2023 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230323011156/https://zenodo.org/record/1038222 |url-status=live }}</ref> Its namesake is [[Alberta]], the [[Canadian province]] established the very same year where the first remains were found. The generic name also incorporates the [[Ancient Greek|Greek]] word {{lang|grc|σαυρος}}/''sauros'', meaning "lizard", which is the most common suffix in dinosaur names. The [[type species]] is ''Albertosaurus sarcophagus'' and the [[specific name (zoology)|specific name]] is derived from the Ancient Greek term σαρκοφάγος (''{{lang|grc-Latn|sarkophagos}}''), meaning "flesh-eating", and having the same [[etymology]] as the [[sarcophagus|funeral container]] with which it shares its name, which is a combination of the Greek words σαρξ/''{{lang|grc-Latn|sarx}}'' ("flesh") and {{lang|grc|φαγειν}}/''{{lang|grc-Latn|phagein}}'' ("to eat").<ref name="osborn1905">{{cite journal |last=Osborn |first=Henry F. |author-link=Henry Fairfield Osborn |year=1905 |title=''Tyrannosaurus'' and other Cretaceous carnivorous dinosaurs |url=https://digitallibrary.amnh.org/bitstream/handle/2246/1464//v2/dspace/ingest/pdfSource/bul/B021a14.pdf?sequence=1&isAllowed=y |journal=Bulletin of the American Museum of Natural History |volume=21 |issue=3 |pages=259–265 |doi=10.1111/j.1468-5965.2007.00735_17.x |hdl=2246/1464 |archive-date=November 2, 2022 |access-date=January 1, 2023 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20221102135822/https://digitallibrary.amnh.org/bitstream/handle/2246/1464/v2/dspace/ingest/pdfSource/bul/B021a14.pdf?sequence=1&isAllowed=y |url-status=live }}</ref> More than 30 specimens of all ages are known to science.<ref name=ericksonetal2006/><ref name=currie2003b/>
