Chesnaught seems to be based on a {{wp|hedgehog}} combined with a matured {{wp|chestnut}}. It may also draw inspiration from "armored" mammals such as {{wp|pangolins}}, {{wp|armadillos}}, and {{wp|glyptodonts}}. Its bulky "armor" is possibly a reference to split apart {{wp|calybium and cupule}}, which are parts that protect the nuts of chestnut trees which split apart when sufficiently ripened. It is also based on {{wp|knight}}s and various types of body {{wp|armor}}, including {{wp|brigandine}}s and {{wp|barbute}}s. | Chesnaught seems to be based on a {{wp|hedgehog}} combined with a matured {{wp|chestnut}}.
