From Bismuth's page:

"When Bismuth was asking about other Crystal Gems, she lists a few, one of which is named "Crazy Lace". This might be a reference to the character Aduba plays in the show above. At the same time, Crazy Lace is also a variety of agate."

From Garnet's page:

"Garnet may be based on the Hindu deity, Ardhanarishvara:
 * Like the deity, Garnet is first depicted, chronologically as half-blue and half-red. They also share the third eye, which is located at the same place: the center of the forehead.
 * The feminine half is to the left while the right is masculine, this is shown through the locations of Ruby and Sapphire's gemstones.
 * Like Garnet, Ardhanarishvara was made through the love of two beings (Shiva & Parvati). They were so in love that they never wanted to be two separate beings ever again.
 * They are also depicted as the union between opposites. In Garnet's case, she balances Ruby's active and fiery behavior with Sapphire's cold and passive attitude."
