I'm not sure why, but it seems like the name Harvey was also very popular among Jewish Americans 50+ years ago and beyond. Almost every famous American Harvey I can think of has a typically Ashkenazi last name. Often that happens for names that are Hebrew or German in origin, but looking it up it seems the name Harvey is English, via the Bretons.
