The genus name of Guilfoylia is in honour of William Guilfoyle (1840–1912), an Australian landscape gardener and botanist. The Latin specific epithet of monostylis is derived from mono meaning one and stylis referring to the style. It was first described and published in Fragm. (Fragmenta Phytographiae Australiae, Melbourne) Vol.8 on page 34 in 1873.
