In this context, I would like to express my humble opinion:
"Apache HataraCo"

HataraCo (Hatara-ko) means "Let's work!" or "Hey you, work hard!"


1. H T R Co that's for "HTTP and Related COmponents". 

2. Client-side HTTP Components would say "Apache HataraCo (Work hard!)" and
   the Apache HTTP Server might respond, "It Works!" -- :-)
   # It takes me back to the good old days when I encountered Mosaic
   # Browser and NCSA HTTP Server (in 1993) as a student of the
   # University of Tokyo.
