Name origin
The island was named c.1860 by Captain Richards of the Royal Navy, for Thomas Arthur Hull, ship's master of the HMS Havannah under Captain Thomas Harvey, namesake of Port Harvey which is just to the west, forming a bay between the two nearly-joined Cracroft Islands. The Havannah served with the Pacific Station from 1855 to 1859.
