Spaniard here. The 'siesta' is just to combat - avoid - midday heat, specially in southern regions.

Completely off topic, but you may be amused to know that this: https://www.wildernessmag.co.nz/spaniard/ is also a spaniard. It's a plant that consists of a group of spikes, with a large spike growing out of it, that has spikes on it.

I have no idea why they're called spaniards.
