  • Jabberwocky is also the name of a boss monster in the SNES game Secret of Mana. However, the character's appearance bears little resemblance to the Tenniel illustration.
  • Jabberocky is the name given to an unit in the game Sacrifice. The 'w' presumably is removed because the units belongs to James, god of earth. The appearances of this unit are not like the Tenniel illustration at all.
  • Jabberwock is a monster in the game Final Fantasy IX (appears also as a friendly monster that gives you AP) .
  • The Jabberwocky is also the name of a monster in the Warhammer Fantasy universe.
  • In The Simpsons television cartoon, Jubjub is the name of Selma Bouvier's iguana. Also, Mr. Burns has been known to use Callooh! Callay! as an expression of joy.
  • The online virtual pets game Neopets features a species of pet called the JubJub. It is not a bird, but a comical-looking creature resembling a ball of fluff with large feet. The Wocky is another Neopets species, more like a housecat than any other real animal, but in earlier incarnations appeared to be a cat/fox blend. It's possible the appearance of the foxy Wocky influenced its name, or vice versa, but given the JubJub's name, it's unlikely the British creators of Neopets were unaware of the poem.
  • The Gothic band Cruxshadows have recorded a very creepy version of Jabberwock.
