The name "Clifford Ashley Mountains" was used by Robert Cushman Murphy for a number of scattered mountains and ridges on the south side of the Bay of Isles, following his visit to South Georgia in 1912–13. The South Georgia Survey, 1955–56, reported that a group name for these features is unsuitable and an altered form of the name was applied to the highest of the mountains, Mount Ashley.
