Georges Clemenceau (1841-1929) was a French political figure. Known as “The Tiger,” he served twice as premier of France (1906-1901, 1917-1920) and was instrumental in writing the terms of the Versailles Treaty.
In 1892 Arthur Philemon Coleman [1852–1939] called this peak Pyramid Mountain. The current name was bestowed in 1919 by the Alberta-British Columbia Boundary Commission .
