1) A
Name, either the first or last.
Attributed origins and meanings vary, however a commonly applied meaning is "Sea-contest", "Sea-battle" or "Sea war".
One of the earliest instances is in the Middle English romance, the Lay of Havelok the
Dane. Others bearing the
name include Sir Henry Havelock (an early 19th century general), Havelock Ellis (physician, psychologist, writer and and social reformer, probably best known for his studies of human sexuality), Judy Havelock (a Bond girl) and Lord Havelock Vetinari (ruler of Ankh-Morpork in Terry Pratchett's Discworld).
The
name has also been applied to several places, often being named after someone bearing the
name: Havelock Island in the Indian Ocean is named for Sir Henry Havelock, who served in India during the
mid-1800s, for example.
2) A flap of cloth covering the back of the
neck, attached to a hat, to protect against sunburn. Named after Sir Henry Havelock.
