Peter Firmin is said to have come up with the name of Noggin after travelling on the London Underground and seeing Neasden tube station, which made him think "Noggin". Some of the original artwork for the series is on display at the Rupert Bear Museum. The appearance of the characters was influenced by that of the Lewis chessmen in the British Museum. (en)
