Raush River
- Mount Longstaff - After Dr. TOG. Longstaff, who mountaineered in the Himalayas as well as in British Columbia.
- Raush River - This was originally Rivière au Shuswap (the Shuswap Indians did extend this far north). This was shown on maps first as R au Shuswap, then as R au Sh, and finally as Raush River.
- The name Raush Valley was used when a post office was opened in the area in 1915.
