This creature's name differs from the [[Armored Cannon Beetle Larva]]'s with the word "Firesnout", which refers to its fire shooting ability and, like other Lithopods, its snout, from which the fire comes from. For reasons unknown, the word "Larva" is absent from its name when compared to the Armored Cannon Beetle Larva, despite it being a cannon beetle larva as well. Its Japanese name is ({{j|ヒフキドックリ|Hifuki Dokkuri|Fire Breathing Tokkuri}}) with Tokkuri being the Japanese name for most lithopods (referring to the part of the Sake set) and Fire Breathing is obviously chosen.
