It is unclear as to whether or not the Mad Hatter from Alice in Wonderland was designed as a character to represent any metaphorical idea. However, it is well regarded that the character was based on a furniture dealer by the name of Theophilus Carter, who invented some intriguing devices such as an alarm clock bed. He was even given the nickname "The Mad Hatter" by many people, as he would stand outside of his furniture shop in order to advertise wearing a large top hat.

∙ 12y agoCarroll may have asked Tenniel to draw the Mad Hatter to resemble Theophilus Carter, a furniture dealer near Oxford. Carter was known in the area as the Mad Hatter, partly because he always wore a top hat and because of his eccentric ideas. It is also often suggested that Tenniel made the Mad Hatter resemble the politician Disraeli.
