Around the world, Knox (Knox

, נוקס
, along with others...) is quite a rare principally masculine, but scarcely female first name. The first name Knox is characteristic of Fiji, where it is quite a rare masculine name, Zambia, where it is a rare boy's name, and South Africa, where it is a rare principally boy's, but very seldom feminine name. In absolute terms, this name is the most popular in the United States, South Africa, and Zambia. Much more prevalently, Knox is the last name as well as the forename.
Knox is also a name for the fictitious and mythical characters: Knox Harrington , the fictional human from The Big Lebowski; Knox Overstreet , the character from Dead Poets Society and Knox , the comics character, Fix & Foxi and Friends.
