Chetamon Mountain is a name derived from the Stoney language meaning "squirrel". The mountain was named in 1916 by Morrison P. Bridgland because two rocks on the peak's arête had the appearance of a squirrel. Bridgland (1878-1948) was a Dominion Land Surveyor who named many peaks in Jasper Park and the Canadian Rockies. The mountain's name was officially adopted in 1956 by the Geographical Names Board of Canada.
