Mount Everest was originally known as "Peak XV" in the 19th century when it was first surveyed by the British. However, it has long been known by various names in local languages, with the most notable being "Sagarmatha" in Nepali and "Chomolungma" in Tibetan. The name "Everest" was officially adopted in 1865 in honor of Sir George Everest, the British surveyor general of India.
