Etymology

His name follows the typical naming scheme of the Shifters, being made up of a word and a sound. "Horu" is a reference to "horn" ("ホルン") + the triphonetic sound "run" "ルン". This refers to the egg tooth on the break of a chick when it is born, often referred to as a "horn" in many languages. It is likely the reason why he is portrayed as a chick. The similarities are drawn to chipping away at statues using tools such as a chisel.

His name could be a reference to Horace Lecoq de Boisbaudran, the name of the man who taught Auguste Rodin sculpture, as "Horurun" borrows the first two letters of both "Horace" and "Lecoq" ("ホ" from "Horace" and "ル" from "Lecoq" which is written as "rukokku" in Japanese).
