That sounds a bit odd for a name?

Great capture as always Paul

They get their name from the web - usually, an orb spider spins a near-perfect web, but for some reason, this species misses joining some parts of theirs - hence the missing sector.

Thanks for explaining that Paul

You're welcome. A bit of learning goes a long way. It could mean you see a web in the shrubbery or against a fence and know it's likely one of these or an Araneus diadematus!
