Nommé d'après le lieu habité «Queenston» et le lieu où s'est déroulé le fait militaire, les «hauteurs de Queenston» (non répertorié). «Hauteurs» tient de la configuration naturelle du terrain, comparativement à «remblais», des travaux de main d'homme. Il n'y a pas d'entité répertoriée qui expliquerait le maintien de «Queenston Heights» en français. 2, record 1, French, - lieu%20historique%20national%20de%20Queenston%20Heights
