The peak was photographed from the air by Ronne Antarctic Research Expedition (RARE), 1947, and was surveyed by Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey (FIDS), 1958. Named by the United Kingdom Antarctic Place-Names Committee (UK-APC) after Robert Norman (fl. 1560-96), English compass maker who fortuitously discovered magnetic dip in 1576.
