Even more convinced that there’s some connection here between the doctor and Humpty since watching “Who’s Alice?” The moment when Jafar shows him the White Rabbit, he just shrinks into his necktie and looks, frankly, like an egg…actually, like a specific egg.
To paraphrase Humpty’s conversation with Alice…is it a belt? Is it a cravat? Look at the way his collar flips up on the sides just like Humpty’s. This styling doesn’t seem to be accidental.
I also found a reference to a Dr. Lydgate in a book called Middlemarch, but I don’t know enough about it to draw any conclusions from the Wikipedia article.
