Names that other countries have for this feature:
Conspicuous mountain, c. 2,800 m, 4 mi SE of Mount Bayonne in N Alexander Island. First mapped by the FrAE, 1908-10, under Charcot, who named it for the French capital. Resighted in 1936 by the BGLE and charted as mountains, but subsequent study of air photos taken by the RARE, 1947-48, has caused the name to be restricted to this single mountain.
