Google has Material Design, Microsoft has Fluent and (unofficially) Metro.
About two decades ago, the User Interface for Mac OS X was called Aqua but I do not see this term used in practice as much anymore (it does not even have a StackOverflow tag like Material Design and Microsoft-Metro have).
Is there a specific name (official or unofficial) for the design language across Apple platforms?
While I'm not entirely sure it's 100% analogous to Material Design, I'd say the term you're looking for is Human Interface Guidelines.
On this page in Apple's website you'll find the phrase "iOS design language". The macOS design language for a long time was Aqua but since Mojave, Aqua is treated like a legacy term in the SDK.
