The pass was photographed from aircraft by the United States Antarctic Service (USAS), 1939–41, and the Ronne Antarctic Research Expedition (RARE), 1947-48. It was traveled by R.L. Freeman of Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey (FIDS) in 1947-48. Named by United Kingdom Antarctic Place-Names Committee (UK-APC) for Guy M. Stubbs, British Antarctic Survey (BAS) geologist at Stonington Island, 1963-65.
