The name "centipede" comes from the Latin words "centi," meaning "hundred," and "pedis," meaning "foot." This suggests that centipedes have many legs, though they typically have between 30 and 354 legs, depending on the species. The term is somewhat misleading as they do not actually have a hundred legs. The name reflects the creature's many segments and legs, which contribute to its distinctive appearance.
