As the headmistresses from both schools had the surname "Hunter" at the time of the merger, and an original headmistress was Anna Hunter, the combined school took the name "Hunterhouse College".
Hunterhouse now has its first ever headmaster. Mr Andrew Gibson has been the Principal since September 2008 and was previously Vice-Principal at Grosvenor Grammar.
In 2012 Hunterhouse celebrated its 25 Anniversary year including a concert at the Ulster Hall, Belfast, which past Hunterians, Princess Gardens and Ashleigh House pupils attended.

Controversies
In November 2014, after a parent of a pupil complained, the school apologised for a worksheet which presented the traditional Christian view of homosexuality as sinful according to 1 Corinthians 6:9-11 in the New Testament.
