Etymology
The name is in tribute to the former mayor of La Reina Fernando Castillo Velasco, who died in 2013.

When the station was still under design, the names of "Tobalaba Sur" and "La Reina" were shuffled. When the construction of Line 3 was confirmed in 2012 by President Sebastián Piñera, it became official as "Estación Larraín" due to the name of the avenue where it is located. However, on July 19, 2014, President Michelle Bachelet formalized the name change to the stretch of Avenida Larraín de La Reina to Fernando Castillo Velasco, as well as the change of name to this station for the deceased mayor.
