Silent movie comedian Harold (5)

I believe the answer is:

lloyd

(Other definitions for lloyd that I've seen before include "David -- George, PM 1916-22" , "Harold - - , silent comic" , "Christopher - - , garden expert" , "Bridges perhaps" , "Marie -, nineteenth to twentieth century English music-hall entertainer" .)

I've seen this clue in The Wall Street Journal.
