The hospital originally opened as Pasadena Hospital, though the official name of the hospital is Pasadena Hospital DBA (doing business as) Huntington Memorial Hospital, known locally as Huntington Hospital, Huntington, or sometimes HMH.[ citation needed ]
In the 1930s Pasadena Hospital was awarded two million dollars from the estate of Henry Edwards Huntington, a Southern California businessman and booster, and as a result, the common name of the hospital was changed.
