The quadrangle was named after this escarpment, and the escarpment itself was named after the Victoria, a ship used on the famous expedition of Ferdinand Magellan. Its name was adopted by the International Astronomical Union (IAU) in 1976.[1]

The escarpment cuts across Enheduanna crater at its southern end and across an unnamed crater near its center.
