Discovery and name

Inman Nunatak was mapped by the United States Geological Survey from surveys and U.S. Navy air photos collected during the years 1960–66. It was named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names in honor of Martin M. Inman, an auroral scientist who served at Byrd Station during the 1960–61 and 1961–62 research seasons.
