It was a Pothos, but no more.
It was firstly named scientifically Pothos aureus, (Pothos aureus Linden & André in 1880) then moved to Scindapsus (Scindapsus aureus) then to Rhaphidophora (Rhaphidophora aurea). Scientist change the name as they study it further and new evident appear along the way.
It is a plant with long history, most changes was due to the botanical description made based on juvenile plant, not the inflorescence/flower. floral morphology is needed in most case on plant description to accurately identifies plant.
Epipremnum aureum is one of plant known to be very rarely bloom naturally, due to it's genetic make up. (something associated to the gibberellin (GA) biosynthetic gene)
In the past. some seller will also call this Monstera, or Philodendron, but seems like it is rarely called that way nowadays.
But the name Pothos seems likely will persist. Anyway it is the Basionym (the first legal name) of that plant.
The same thing happen to Sansevieria and many other plants, it will likely take sometimes to call Sansevieria as Dracaena in gardening society I think
