Cofagrigus's design is based off a {{wp|sarcophagus}}. It was also most likely based on {{wp|Curse of the pharaohs|supposedly cursed Egyptian tombs}}. Any trespassers in the tombs are said to fall under a "curse" from its owner, which is said to cause illness, serious injury, or death. The hype of cursed tombs was made popular when many people in a team of explorers in 1922, who had opened and entered {{wp|Tutankhamun|King Tutankhamun}}'s tomb, began dying after the exploration. {{a|Mummy|Cofagrigus's ability}} to passively turn other Pokémon into mummies that in turn transform other Pokémon into mummies is very similar to the popular culture depiction of the spread of a "zombie virus" in horror films.  

Cofagrigus may be a combination of ''{{wp|sarcophagus}}'' and ''[[wiktionary:egregious|egregious]]'', while also involving ''coffin''.
