The term "ladybug" originates from the Virgin Mary, often referred to as "Our Lady," due to the insects' association with good luck and protection in agriculture. The name reflects the appearance of the beetles, particularly their bright colors and spots, which are reminiscent of depictions of Mary. Although not all "ladybugs" belong to the same species, the name has become a common term for various members of the Coccinellidae family, which are generally recognized for their beneficial role in pest control.
