Etymology: "The epithet, hamiltonii, honours Alexander Greenlaw Hamilton (1852-1941), microscopist, naturalist, school principle and technical college teacher. He visited Albany, Western Australia, in mid December 1902, and studied Cephalotus follicularis sites with C.R.P. Andrews. He joinded the Linnean Society in 1885, and published many articles on Cephalotus in the Proceedings of the Linnean Society journal."
