I may be showing my age, but Harvey was a 6' tall invisible rabbit. "Harvey", 1950, starring James Stewart, Josephine Hull, Peggy Dow Due to his insistence that he has an invisible six-foot rabbit for a best friend, a whimsical middle-aged man is thought by his family to be insane - but he may be wiser than anyone knows.
The description on the Harvey OS web site implies that this is the source of the name.
