Trivia
Origin
Nuzleaf is probably based on an acorn, and possibly on Pinocchio. They may also be based on 天狗 tengu, tricky Japanese goblins who are known for their long noses, cruel tricks, ability to read minds, and the ranks of 小天狗 ko-tengu, tengu of lesser rank. Its tendency to use a flute to cause fear in others is reminiscent of Pan, the Greek god of nature, who played reed pipes and was known for the ability to strike inherent terror into the hearts of others.
Name origin
Nuzleaf may be a combination of nuzzle or nose and leaf.
Konohana is a combination of 木の葉 konoha (leaves) and 鼻 hana (nose). It may also literally be 巨の鼻 konohana (big nose).
