>Similarly, Knuckles having a Jamaican accent/being Jamaican has also taken on a mythical status. There's one strategy guide that has Knuckles talking in a Jamaican accent around Sonic 3's release, but this isn't hard canon and the creators never spoke of an intent to make him explicitly Jamaican. Rather he (and the Echidnas in Sonic) are inspired by all sorts of tropical or ancient cultures.
Knuckles' early placeholder name was Rastafari. At least, that's how Sega presented him to journalists in early Sonic 3 showcases.
Also, the shoes colors kinda give it away that he has a rasta theme.
Also, because it wasn't specified that it was a male, many people thought it was a girl because of the fuchsia color (later changed to red in Sonic & Knuckles)
