How did the Lupus disease get its name? - lupus disease more condition_symptoms

ok .. I know that lupus is wolf in Latin. But like disease, lupus his name? It was the name of the wolf? I know that people and dogs can get lupus, .. I've been thinking about how and when the disease has a name?

"It takes its name from a 19th century French physician who believed that the facial rash of some people with lupus looked like the bite or scratch (from a wolf lupus" is Latin for wolf and "erythematosus" is Latin for red).
