The town was named after Charlotte (née Harlin), wife of John Dunn Moore of the Colinton pastoral property. Their son William John Harlin Moore was a Member of the Queensland Legislative Assembly.[2]

They were housed by the publicans and owners of the Harlin Hotel and the Caltex service station from 9 January 2011, until the flooded creeks and rivers subsided.[8]
