The Raging Long Legs is distinguished from the [[Beady Long Legs]] with the word "raging", which may have been given because it goes into a rage fit when it takes heavy damage. In Japan, it is called {{j|ゾウノアシ|Zou no Ashi}}, which literally translates to "Foot of Elephant". This is apt, given that its feet are quite massive. Its scientific name is ''pseudoarachnia furiendis'', where ''pseudoarachnia'' is a genus name used on the [[arachnorb family]], and ''furiendis'' is similar to the Latin ''furor'', which means rage, once again tying in to the creature's short temper. Internally, the boss is known as <code>bigfoot</code>, once more because of its large feet, but perhaps also as a nod to the legendary {{w|Bigfoot}}.
