A Rear Admiral (Lower Half) may be also referred to as a "one-star Admiral" to distinguish it from the other ranks of Admiral; so named for the one star rank insignia worn on the uniform.
 
The name comes from the old sailing times. For large fleets, the "Rear Admiral" would be in charge of commanding ships at the rear.
