AB - Everything in the universe has its own name to refer it. A piece of land and sea also have geographical names and marine geographical names respectively. Even each coast bordering land and sea has its own unique name. Names can be divided into two parts: specific names and attribute (generic) names. Coastal geographical names consist of attribute names such as Cape, Point Spit, Ki and Head. Some of these names have originated from nation's tragic history. This study conducts a case research on how existing coastal geographical names were designated in the first place and have retained them up to date. It also carries out an analysis on coastal geographical names used in old charts as well as nautical charts, sailing directions and topographic maps in a scale of 1:50,000 published by Governor-general during the Japanese occupation. This study also compares and reviews ocean geographical names in general and presents methods to achieve standardization of coastal geographical names around Korean waters.
