'''Nachtigal Peak''' ({{coor dm|54|29|S|36|14|W|}}) is a rocky [[summit (topography)|peak]] on a spur projecting northward from the southeast extremity of the [[Allardyce Range]], [[South Georgia]]. It rises to 1,160 m at the west side of the head of [[Cook Glacier]], 4 nautical miles (7 km) east of [[Nordenskjold Peak]]. The name "[[Kleine Pic]]" ([[Little Peak]]) was given to this feature by the German group of the [[International Polar Year Investigations]], 1882-83. The SGS, 1951-52, reported that "Kleine Pic" is not particularly descriptive or distinctive for the peak described, and that name has been rejected. The name Nachtigal Peak, recommended by the [[United Kingdom Antarctic Place-Names Committee]] (UK-APC) in 1954, derives from nearby [[Nachtigal Glacier]], which was named by the German group of 1882-83.

'''Nattriss Head''' ({{coor dm|54|51|S|35|56|W|}}) is a small but prominent rock [[headland]] marking the south side of the entrance to [[Drygalski Fjord]] on the southeast coast of [[South Georgia]].

On his chart of 1825, [[James Weddell]], Master, [[Royal Navy]], applied the name [[Nebles Harbour]] to Collins Harbor, or possibly to an anchorage close north of [[Ardley Island]]; the detail of this part of his map cannot be interpreted with certainty. Nebles Point was given by the [[United Kingdom Antarctic Place-Names Committee]] (UK-APC) in 1960 in order to preserve Weddell's naming in the area.

This coast was first explored in 1909 by Dr. [[Jean B. Charcot]] who, it appears, gave this name to a feature somewhat north of the bay described. The [[British Graham Land Expedition]] (BGLE) made a detailed survey of this area in 1936-37, and in correlating their work with that of Charcot applied the name Neny Fjord to the bay between Red Rock Ridge and Roman Four Promontory.

'''Mount Nicholas''' ({{coor dm|69|22|S|69|50|W|}}) is a [[mountain]], 1,465 m, standing 5.5 nautical miles (10 km) south-southwest of [[Cape Brown]] and forming the north limit of [[Douglas Range]] on the east side of [[Alexander Island]]. First seen and roughly charted from a distance in 1909 by the [[French Antarctic Expedition]] under Charcot, who named it "[[Ile Nicolas II]]" after [[Nicholas II]], then reigning tsar of Russia. The French Antarctic Expedition maps showed it as an [[island]], or possible [[headland]], separated by a channel from Alexander Island. The coast in this vicinity was photographed from the air in 1937 by the [[British Graham Land Expedition]] (BGLE), but Charcot's name which was altered to "[[Cape Nicholas]]," was applied in error to the seaward bulge of [[Mount Calais]], about 13 nautical miles (24 km) to the north-northwest Surveys in 1948 by the [[Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey]] (FIDS) identified the feature originally named "Ile Nicolas II" by Charcot as the mountain described.

Named by [[Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names]] (US-ACAN) (1997) after [[Robert L. Nichols]] ([[Nichols Snowfield]]), one of the first American scientists to do geologic research in Wright Valley.

This ridge is in proximity to Meserve, Hart, Goodspeed, and [[Denton Glaciers]], named after four young geologists who worked in this area under Nichols in the 1958-59 field season.
