Morphology
The meaning is directly derivable from combining 'POS' (an abbreviation for a word's grammatical category) with 'tagger' (one who or that which assigns tags). As a compound noun denoting a tool that assigns part-of-speech labels, this follows a transparent, compositional pattern that a learner who knows both constituents would understand.
Etymology
POS tagger comes from the simple idea of putting labels on words. POS stands for 'parts of speech' and a tagger 'tags' words like price tags in a shop, marking 'noun', 'verb' or 'adjective', so the name fits a tool that labels each word's role.
