Nomenclature
- Named for Leo Brenner, the astronomical pen name of Spiridon Gopcevic (July 9, 1855–1928), a Croatian astronomer and author. In 1893 he founded Manora Observatory on Mali Lošinj where he used a 17.5 cm refractor to make observe Mars, the rings of Saturn, and other planets. He also published an astronomical journal from 1899 to 1909. According to Ashbrook, 1984 (pages 103-111) Brenner/Gopcevic withdrew from astronomy and returned to his former life as a political propagandist after his fantastic claims, and a tendency to falsify information, alienated him from his readers. He died in obscurity.
- Brenner is Catalog number 4461a in the IAU's Named Lunar Formations, the small "a" indicating it is a feature interpolated between those cataloged in the earlier Collated List. The name is attributed to Fauth
