Named in memory of Charles Dillon Perrine (1867–1951), American astronomer working at Lick Observatory from 1893, an enthusiastic observer, who discovered the satellites Jupiter VI (Himalia) and VII (Elara) and nine comets during 1895–1902. He was appointed director of the C’ordoba Observatory in Argentina in 1909 and retired in 1936. The discoverer of this minor planet rediscovered Perrine’s periodic comet, lost for six returns, visually at Lomnický Stít {see planet  (3168)} in 1955. After 1968 the comet was again lost.
