Origin
In particular, Spinarak shares coloring and appearance with the Happy Face Spider, an arachnid from Hawaii that seems to have a face on its abdomen.
Japanese believe that a spider can ensnare careless travelers.
Name origin
Spinarak's name is a combination of spinneret, which is where a spider excretes silk, and arachnid. Itomaru could be a combination of 糸 ito, thread, and 丸 maru, circle, or a shortening of 巻き上がる makiagaru, to roll up.
