No, N-(4-hydroxyphenyl)acetamide is the IUPAC name. Paracetamol & acetaminophen are "generic" names for it when used as a drug. Tylenol, Panadol, and quite a few other brand names are used worldwide¹.

The International Chemical Identifier is InChI=1S/C8H9NO2/c1-6(10)9-7-2-4-8(11)5-3-7/h2-5,11H,1H3,(H,9,10).
