This name originates from Australia. It is part of the Australian Antarctic Gazetteer and the SCAR Composite Gazetteer of Antarctica.
A rock in the Mackellar Islands lying to the north and north-west of Cape Denison, on the coast of George V Land. Discovered by AAE (1911-14) under Sir Douglas Mawson, who named the group of islands after C.D. Mackellar of London, a patron of the expedition.
The Devil Rock was named in 2017 for the dog that served on the AAE. 'The Devil' was named for her 'savage intractable disposition'.
