==Etymology==
In 1792, Sarichev called the volcano "Ognedyshushchaya Gora" meaning "fire erupting mountain", i.e. volcano in Russian. In 1825, it was known as Makuschkin Volcano, possibly from the Russian word ''makushka'', meaning "the top (of the head)". Its native name was ''Aigagin'', a derivative of the word ''Aigak'' in the native tongue of the Aleuts.
Makushin was also the native village here on the northern shore of the Makushin Bay where the foreman or ''bidarshik'' of the Russian American Company lived. There were six huts (yourts) where 35 natives lived.〔
Alaska Volcano Observatory has identified "Ajagin Wesselow", "Makushin Volcano", "Ajagisch", "Makouchine", "Ognedieshutshai Gora", "Ayagsh", "Aiyagin", "Cheerful Mtn.", "Ayyagyh", "Ayagish", "Makuschkin Volcano", "Ognedyshushchaya Gora" and "Makishinskaia sopka" as alternate names for the Makushin Volcano. Specifically identified here are the four features namely, Red Cinder Dome, Pakushin cone, the Sugarloaf and the Point Kadin vents.〔
