Why was Scott Base named after Captain Robert Falcon Scott?

The New Zealand base established on Antarctica is near Captain Scott's hut at Hut Point. New Zealand is part of the Commonwealth, and Captain Scott is a Commonwealth hero. Captain Scott left Christchurch, New Zealand to sail south on both of his Antarctic expeditions. Naming Scott Base in his honour makes perfect sense.
