In The Pickwick Papers, what is Mr. Pickwick's first name ?

We find the information about the main character in
Charles Dickens's series (first known as his first novel) The Pickwick Papers
at the very beginning of the tale, on chapter 1. This chapter, titled
The Pickwickians, introduces us to the high and mighty click of the
Pickwick Club: A club of self-important members with self-important
rules.

Samuel Pickwick, Esq., G.C.M.P.C. which stands for
General Chairman and Member of the Pickwick Club, is the founder of this club. In it,
researchers of many fields (he, himself is a researcher in the field of biology) travel
around the counties telling about their discoveries. Therefore, Samuel Pickwick is the
man for whom the series were named.
