The name means 'goat' in the local language, and it is also known as ''Kambing Island'' (''Pulau Kambing'') by the Indonesians (''Kambing'' means 'goat' in Indonesian). It was so named because of the large number of goats kept there.
''Atauro'' is also the name of a vessel in the Timor Leste Defence Force, the East Timorese patrol boat Atauro
