The creature's name is a pun on the [[Iridescent Flint Beetle]]'s name. "Iridescent" means "shiny", referring to the carapace. A glint is a shimmer of light, found on very shiny things. Its Japanese name, {{j|オオガネモチ|Ooganemochi}} means "millionaire", referring to how gold is often associated with richness, but is also a pun on the Flint Beetle's name, given that the two share the {{j|ガネモチ|ganemochi}} part.
