The name Comox Glacier comes from the name of the K’ómoks First Nation who inhabit the area. They refer to the mountain by the name Kwénis, which means “whale”. This name comes from a traditional account of the Great Flood: a whale was said to be trapped up on the mountain when the flood receded. In the early 1900s, the glacier was known as Dome Glacier. The name Comox Glacier was officially adopted in 1939, at the suggestion of the Comox & District Mountaineering Club.
