Fue aerofotografiada en diciembre de 1947 por la Expedición Investigadora Antártica Norteamericana que realizó trabajos en el área durante los años 1947-1948, bajo la dirección del capitán de fragata Finne Ronne. Su nombre fue aplicado en 1963 por el Instituto Hidrográfico de la Armada de Chile en recuerdo de las Reales Cédulas por las que el Rey de España, en virtud de la legítima autoridad que le conferían la Bulas del Papa Alejandro VI (año 1493) y el Tratado de Tordesillas (1494), efectuó en el siglo XVI la primitiva distribución del extremo S de América de la "Terra Australis" (Hoy Territorio Chileno Antártico). Dichas reales cédulas son los más antiguos y legítimos títulos de posesión en la Antártica y asignaron los territorios que por el "uti possidetis" de 1810 pasaron a formar la República de Chile. En algunas cartas y publicaciones esta ensenada ha figurado como ensenada Gabinete y seno Cabinet, ambos derogados.
