Although never mentioned, the main characters of the "Rhapsody in Blue" segment all have names. The construction worker is named Duke. The man who needs a job is, appropriately, named Jobless Joe. The little girl is named Rachel, named and modeled after Eric Goldberg and Susan Goldberg's youngest daughter. (Rachel's real-life sister Jenny was the model for a character in Rachel's scenes, the girl with blue hair who can perform all the actions that Rachel cannot. At the time the segment was being produced, the real Jenny had blue hair.) The portly fellow is named John, sometimes referred to by the animators as "Flying John," and he is named after animation historian John Culhane, who was also the inspiration for the character Mr. Snoops in Le avventure di Bianca e Bernie (1977). (He was originally based on Al Hirschfeld's caricature of writer Alexander Woollcott.) Duke is appropriately named after legendary jazz musician Duke Ellington. Jobless Joe is not named or inspired by any particular individual.
