In Japan, the cowlick, or ahoge in Japanese (pronounced ah-ho-geh,written in Japanese as アホ毛), is one of those visual elements used typically in manga and anime on characters that are considered air-headed, comic relief, quirky, or have a carefree personality. I want to emphasize the word "typically" though, because some artists may add them for characters that don't embody the traits I just mentioned, and have them for personal artistic preferences instead.

As for the sneezing cliche, there is this piece of article I found out of curiosity.
