黑吻真鲨得名于前吻顶部上特征的黑色斑点。它的学名由古巴博物学家Felipe Poey命名。他在1860年发表的著作《古巴岛自然历史报告》(Memorias sobre la historia natural de la Isla de Cuba)中对黑吻真鲨进行描述,并命名为Squalus acronotus。后来改为现在的Carcharhinus acronotus。其模式标本是在古巴附近捕捞的一条98厘米长的雄性黑吻真鲨。[2]2008年由Mine Dosay-Akbulut对黑吻真鲨所做的基于核糖体DNA的系统发育分析表明,黑吻真鲨和黑边鳍真鲨(C. limbatus)具有较近的亲缘关系[3]。
