The City of Vancouver was named in 1886.
It was named after Captain George Vancouver. He spent years exploring and mapping the west coast of North America and was the first European to enter Burrard Inlet, the main harbour of the city that bears his name.
The city of Vancouver is named after Captain George Vancouver (June 22, 1757 - May 12, 1798), a Captain in the British Royal Navy, who charted the waters around the present day city of Vancouver in the year 1792. The city of Vancouver; however, was not incorporated until 6 April 1886 (almost 100 years after the death of Captain Vancouver). The city of Vancouver was incorporated the same year that the first transcontinental train arrived. The city's name, honouring Captain George Vancouver, was chosen by Canadian Pacific Railway (CPR) president William Van Horne. "Gassy Jack" Deighton created a tavern in 1867 next to the Hasting's Mill. The settlement then known as Gastown grew up around the tavern and mill. Gastown is still a popular tourist area of Vancouver to this day.
