Etymology: "The epithet, pingellyensis, refers to the township Pingelly, near which this taxon occurs. The Australian Aboriginal name for the area before settlement was Pingecullring. Later settlers called the town Pingegully. The present name, Pingelly, was gazxetted when the railway line went through in 1890."
