Carl Raswan (1893-1966) was an international authority on Arabian horses. He was of German origins, who gave up his name Carl Schmidt when his horse Raswan was killed. At that time he said: “Raswan shall not die - I shall write under his name.” He then had his name legally changed to Raswan in memory of a horse”.
