Bring or take (4)

I believe the answer is:

alan

(Other definitions for alan that I've seen before include "-- Ayckbourn, English dramatist" , "-- Turing, mathematician" , "One of Robin Hood's men was - a Dale" , "- Bennett, English actor, dramatist, writer" , "-- Turing, English computer scientist" .)

I've seen this clue in the Newsday.
