Tl in the name means the former province of Turku and Pori (Finnish: Turun ja Porin lääni). It was attached to the name to distinguish Koski Tl from another municipality named Koski, Koski Hl (Hl for the former province of Häme, Finnish: Hämeen lääni). Koski Hl was renamed Hämeenkoski in 1995 but Koski Tl has not changed its name.

Koski Tl is unilingually Finnish.

Koski Tl's neighbouring municipalities are Loimaa, Marttila, Pöytyä, Salo, Somero and Ypäjä.
