comments: Consultation with Butchulla elders has determined that pronunciation and spelling will vary among different family groups. Both pronunciations 'GUR-rie' and 'Gurri' are commonly accepted and used. 'Gari' is also a recognised alternative spelling from the Badtjala Language. (Ref: Badtjala Word List by Wondunna Aboriginal Corporation, 1996, p160). Initially named Frazer's Island on 10 May 1842 by Henry Stuart Russell (refer: H.S. Russell, Exploring Excursions in Australia, The Journal of the Royal Geographical Society of London, vol 15, 1845, pp305-327), after James Fraser (1776?-1836) master mariner, whose ship Stirling Castle was wrecked in the Swain Reefs area on 22 May 1836.

origin: K'gari is the Butchulla Peoples' traditional name for the island. The name K'gari comes from the creation story of the island, which has been passed down orally for generations between the traditional owners of the surrounding land and waters, the Butchulla People. K'gari is the name of the white spirit that was sent down from the sky by the god Beeral, to help his messenger Yindingie make the land and seas that are home to the Butchulla People. To fully understand the origins of the proposed place name of K'gari, the following two texts retell the creation story in its traditional context, along with artwork that is used when passing this cultural knowledge on between generations: (1) K'gari: the Creation of Fraser Island authored and illustrated by Nai Nai Bird (2019) and published by Cengage; and (2) Legends of Fraser Island authored by Olga Miller and illustrated by Nai Nai Bird (1994) and published by Rigby Heinemann.
history: Name changed from Fraser Island to K'gari by the Minister for Resources on 7 June 2023.
