The point was mapped by the United States Geological Survey from aerial photographs taken by the U.S. Navy's Operation Highjump in 1947. Garwood Point was named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names in honor of James W. Garwood, a U.S. Navy metalsmith, who served as crew chief at Williams Field, McMurdo Sound, and in Christchurch, New Zealand, as well as maintenance shop supervisor in eight Operation Deep Freeze deployments.
There is also a Garwood Valley in Victoria Land in East Antarctica.
