Named after Lina-Loos-Platz, which honours the actress and writer Lina Loos.

The square in front of the station was named on 4 October 2022 after Lina Loos (1882–1950), actress, cabaret artist, chanson singer and writer. She was married to the architect Adolf Loos from 1902; they divorced in 1905. She acted at the Volkstheater from 1924 to 1933 and wrote essays for Vienna newspapers. The station was first planned as ‘An den Alten Schanzen’, then ‘Oberes Hausfeld’.
