>>60823587
When Magellan or whatever his name is was doing his trip round the world, he saw a lot of bonfires on the coast (Lit by the natives because it's near the Polar Circle, ergo cold af), so he named the island after that.

>>60823587
Because when spanish explorers saw it from the coast there were a lot of camp fires from the natives, or so i read.
