The name appears as Islote Solitario, meaning 'solitary islet', on an Argentine government chart of 1957. The name indicates its isolated position.[1] The name 'Solus Island' was adopted on British charts[2]
The island was charted by a Royal Navy Hydrographic Survey Unit from 'John Biscoe' in 1963.
