Banting (crater) name the small craters around it with the same name followed by different letters of the alphabet. The new policy allowed deceased scientists who had contributed to biological knowledge, like Dr. Banting – as well as scientists from other fields and contributors to culture and knowledge, such as writers, composers, and artists – to have craters named after them.
