Harvey

Harvey is a boy's name capable of inspiring great endurance and resilience. Celtic in origin, Harvey first immerged in the Breton language as Haerviu_,_ and denoted someone who was "battle worthy." Evolving from the French Hervé, it's a name that caught the attention of many after the Norman conquest. And with good reason, for in Brittany, the name refers directly to the revered Saint Hervé, who was endowed with the power to cure animals. Born blind into a wealthy family, Hervé elected for the life of a monk and a poet keeping only the close company of a faithful wolf. And so Harvey comes to celebrate the strength that comes from silent determination and a willingness to try.
