Harvey is the name of an invisible rabbit in the movie of the same name starring Jimmy Stewart. Harvey Kinkle is the name of Sabrina's boyfriend in "Sabrina, the Teen-age Witch," T.V. show. He is played by Nate Richert.
A famous bearer of the name Harvey was Harvey Milk, 1930-1978. Harvey Milk was elected to the San Francisco Board of Supervisors in 1977, and was one of the first openly gay public officials. He was assassinated by fellow supervisor Dan White on November 27th, 1978, along with Mayor George Moscone.
Although no longer in the American top 1,000, having featured in the top 100 in the United States a century ago, but declining throughout the 20th century, it has in the past few years been a regular in the British top 100.
Harvey Dent is a character in the "Batman" comic books. The district attorney of Gotham City, he gets scarred by acid and becomes the villian known as Two-Face.
Reminds me of Harvey from Sabrina the Teenage Witch, but he was adorable, so it's a good association.

I am sorry but when I hear this name I think the kid would have insecurities and be a brat, I get this impression from the old cartoon I used to watch when I was a kid called Codename: Kids Next Door.
But I can also think of it as a very daring man, the impression from the Gallagher Girls series by Ally Carter that is one of the teachers first name.
