John Knox was a Scottish religious reformer in the 1500s. I’ve known those in Christian Protestant reformed denominations who name their sons this after him. https://www.britannica.com/biography/John-Knox
Amanda Marie Knox is an American woman who, in 2007, was convicted of murdering her roommate, Meredith Kercher, and sentenced to 26 years in an Italian prison. However, on March 27th, 2015, due to a lack of evidence to connect her to the crime, she was finally exonerated. She has since published a New York Time's bestseller, “Waiting To Be Heard: A Memoir”, and has become a passionate advocate for wrongfully incarcerated individuals.
Sarah Knox Taylor was the daughter of Zachary Taylor, the twelfth president of the United States.

Bernard Knox, literary scholar. He wrote prefaces for many of Robert Fagles' translations, such as the Iliad, Odyssey, and Aeneid (they're both absolutely amazing!)
In Scotland at least this name will always be associated with John Knox, the Calvinist preacher who was one of the leaders of the Scottish reformation.
