In Japan, it is called {{j|ヘラクレスオオヨロヒグモ|Herakuresu Ō Yorohi Gumo}}, which is made up of a number of words. {{j|ヘラクレス|Herakuresu}} means "Hercules" and {{j|オオ|Ō}} means "giant", both referring to its size, {{j|ヨロヒ|yorohi}} is similar to {{j|ヨロイ|yoroi}}, which in turn means "armor", perhaps relating to its high durability and how it is invulnerable until its treasures are torn off, and finally, {{j|グモ|gumo}} means "spider". So, its full translated name could be Giant Armored Herculean Spider.
