Named after Rummelsburger Straße and Edisonstraße, which honours Thomas Edison.
Rummelsburger Straße is named after the direction it leads in, towards Rummelsburg. Edisonstraße honours the American inventor Thomas Alva Edison (1847–1931). At first only its northern part bore his name; the rest was called Halskestraße, after the engineer Johann Georg Halske. Probably when the Treskowbrücke was finished in 1904, the whole street became Edisonstraße.
