    * 1847 , Chambers' Edinburgh Journal , W. Orr July-December 1847, page 61 ( "The Aristocracy of Names"): *: There is one of the novels of Miss Edgeworth - we forget which - in which a gentleman of the name of Harvey' figures as a hero. '''Harvey'''! Only fancy John, Peter, or William '''Harvey''' as the hero of a novel! But Miss Edgeworth was too well acquaintanced with the philosophy of names to commit such a blunder: she made the individual Clarence ' Harvey , and the name has never to this day been objected to even among the female teens. * 1953 , A Name to Conjure With , Macmillan 1953, page 15: *: No less than eight times had I gone to see "Harvey'" while Sid Field was alive. And the play in which he had found the perfect friend in a man-sized white rabbit was so lodged in my system that the six letters spelling ' Harvey had power to rouse me as "Crispin" could rouse an old soldier who had fought at Agincourt.
