In the early 1900s the name "Barnard", applied by James Weddell in 1825 to nearby Needle Peak, was transferred to this mountain. The original name has now been restored; the spelling "Friesland" appears to have been more frequently used than any of the other versions.

The peak was climbed and GPS surveyed by the Australians Damien Gildea and John Bath and the Chilean Rodrigo Fica on 20 December 2003; they produced a new map of the island in 2004, based on Spanish satellite imagery and their GPS data.
