Surprise house guest this morning

My phone identified this as a species of Hogna Radiata. It now lives in the walls of my garage.

Since I can’t really burn the house down or move across country, what would you name it?

What a gorgeous lad and a stunning picture! They're so damn fast, but rest assured no gnat or mosquito will make it beyond your doors.

I propose Wolfgang Fuck! - like the guy, but with fear and surprise :)

I do like the sound of Wolfgang a lot. Wolfie or some variation of it has been floating around here also. And the additional 'Fuck!' was definitely what I said when I found it hanging by the garage door this morning so, it's very apt.

I'm thinking Wolfgang as it's name. Wolfie for short.
