The English name is descriptive of the island’s profile. It was called Hummock Island on the chart of HMS Conway in 1837, was also known as Cockatoo Island, and local whalers called it Evans’ Island after the whaling station there operated by Tommy Evans, according to the historian of Kapiti, Chris Maclean. Charles Heaphy referred to it as Evans’s Island.' Source: Reed, A.W. & Peter Dowling, Place Names of New Zealand, 2010.
