It is named after De Soto Avenue, which travels north-south and crosses the east-west busway route, and is, in turn, named after Hernando de Soto, the conquistador who led the first European expedition into the southeastern United States. De Soto did not explore California, despite the location of the station and avenue.
Counting from the western terminus in Chatsworth, it is the sixth station on the Orange Line.
