The only survivor of the Pequod's sinking in Moby Dick (7)

I believe the answer is:

ishmael

(Other definitions for ishmael that I've seen before include "Hagar's son" , "Narrator of Moby-Dick" , "'Call me . . . . . . .' (first line of Moby Dick)" , "'''Call me ...'' (first words of Moby Dick) (7)'" , "Bellicose sort" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
