There are many different ideas on what the newname should be, such as Blake Harbour, Peter's Place, Sir Peter Blake Village and Blake's Haven.
The next most popular suggestions are to help continue Sir Peter's environmental work and, as Grant Dalton has proposed, to establish a fund to foster young sailors or a scholarship for environmental studies.
Another popular idea is to establish a marine reserve in Sir Peter's honour.
Gerard Dunne, from Remuera, said a fitting way to honour Sir Peter would be to place his portrait on the New Zealand $20 note.
Beattie and Stan Boyask suggest planting three million trees. "To represent everyone of us and help beautify our land. I do not want to see a stone statue, for he was never still."
There are also many new ideas to rename significant events, landmarks and monuments after Sir Peter.
Colette O'Donnell suggests renaming the America's Cup "The Peter Blake Cup" and Frederick Swallow from Mt Roskill suggests renaming Milford Sound "Peter Blake Sound".
* TVNZ will screen a two-part documentary series early next year about Sir Peter Blake's expedition through Antarctica.
The first programme, A World Apart, joins the crew as they set off on the journey and records their struggle with the harsh environment.
The second episode, Where No Man Has Gone Before, follows the Seamaster south into uncharted territory, and captures on film never-before-seen footage of leopard seals attacking crab-eater seals.
