Named in 1910 by A.O. Wheeler & Dr. Longstaff, when viewing the peak from Bugaboo Creek, "...owing to two broad rock scars near the summit, and their arrangement in connection with the snow surrounding, giving them the appearance of gigantic eyebrows, we named it 'Eyebrow peak'...." (1910 letter from A.O. Wheeler, Ottawa file 0179-A). "From the remarkable arrangement of cliff & glacier, we called it, for the purposes of reference, Eyebrow Peak." (T.G. Longstaff, quoted in CAJ, vol III, 1911, p.36)
