The name "neuraminic acid" was introduced by German scientist E. Klenk in 1941, in reference to the brain lipids from which it was derived as a cleavage product.<ref>Klenk, E. 1941. Neuraminsäure, das Spaltprodukt eines neuen Gehirnlipoids. ''Zeitschr. f. Physiol. Chem.'' 1941; 268:50-58.</ref>.

The symbol commonly used for neuraminic acid is '''Neu''', and the residue is typically found with additional chemical modifications in biological systems. As a family, these residues are known as ]. For example, N-acetyl-neuraminic acid, Neu5Ac, is typical in human glycoproteins.
