* Done cleverly in ''WesternAnimation/KungFuPanda''. Po's father is a goose with a thick accent and Po is a panda without an accent. It's obvious to the viewer that Po must be adopted but the film doesn't make much of it and it's pretty much forgotten. Turns out this little tidbit is ''very'' important to the plot of [[WesternAnimation/KungFuPanda2 the sequel]].

* ''Series/{{Forever|2014}}'': Henry and Abigail are both British, but move to New York while Abraham is still a baby. He grows up in America and has a typical New York Jewish accent. It's implied that they sometimes had to move away from New York, or even North America, for varying periods of time, but were in one place until Abe was ten or twelve, prime age for an accent to become fixed, and came back to New York frequently. Henry at least kept many British habits and his British accent. ({{Fanon}} is that Henry and Abigail made an effort to be sure their adopted son, a concentration camp survivor, grew up in the Jewish culture as much as possible.)
