Birthplace: Unknown Favorite Proverb: "One may as well hang for a stolen sheep as for a stolen lamb."
Since being taught how to decipher maps by his older brother Tingle, Ankle has been supporting his good-for-nothing twin brother Knuckle.
The only time he feels he can truly be himself is when he's tending to the Tingle Island flower garden.
The Minish Cap
Ankle asking about his twin brother:
Have you seen Knuckle?
He's my twin brother, and he's dressed all in blue. I don't know where he is!

Notes
General notes
On the contrary to the English translation the others are all variations on the name Tingle. Secondly the Spanish name was changed for the Minish Cap into Angle!
Mingle/Dingle Mix up
In the Italian version of the Minish Cap it turns out to be that there is a rather confusing mix up between Ankle and Knuckle. If we read the description of the Figurine it reads:
Tingle (in verde) e i suoi fratelli, i gemelli Mingle (viola) e Dingle (blu).[...]
So this makes Knuckle (the blue guy) Dingle. If we now compare this to Ankle's Italian Quote:
Hai visto Mingle? È mio fratello gemello! Indossa una tunica blu. Dove si sarà cacciato?
Here Mingle is the blue guy! Which means that the Italian translator is not even capable of keeping Ankle & Knuckle apart.
