If you guys didn't read the readme then here's the reason why did the author named it "Haku".
"I call it 'haku' because I like the sound of it, and also because that word can be written in many ways and mean many things in Japanese. I was definitely thinking about Haku from Spirited Away. Also, I like the resemblance with Raku, the implementation language. I would write it 珀 (amber) or 魄 (soul, spirit)."
