Domestic swine are known as Sus scrofa domesticus or simply Sus domesticus, depending on the prevailing taxonomic theory. But this is for the animal. There is no scientific name for the meat (pork).

The word meat comes from the Old English word mete, which referred to food in general. The term is related to mad in Danish, mat in Swedish and Norwegian, and matur in Icelandic, which also mean 'food'.
