Best Answer

There are quite a few Gibraltar points in the world - in Canada and Alaska, for example. They are named after the original Gibraltar, one of the Pillars of Hercules at the entrance to the Mediterranean, which has become a common name for any piece of land jutting out into the sea, especially if it has a big rocky cliff on the end.

Gibralter Point in Lincolnshire has no rock, which is probably why it is spelt with an E next to the end instead of an A.
