Kaname Island is a small, isolated island which lies about 40 kilometres (22 nmi) northwest of Padda Island in Lützow-Holm Bay, Antarctica. The island was discovered by the Japanese Antarctic Research Expedition (JARE) during helicopter reconnaissance flights from East Ongul Island in the 1969–70 season. The name "Kaname-jima" (chief or important island) was given by JARE Headquarters in 1972.[1]
