I think it would only work if you then chose something like "Clint" as a middle name!!

Really like it Choc. One to add to my list. How about Elvi for a girl?

I think Elvis is just as nice for a girl, no need to remove the "s"!

I think Yay.

You would have to be a cool family though to carry it off.

No NO NO.

There are two Elvises at my DD's school - Elvis Polanski (son of Roman) and Tim-Elvis Guetta (known as Elvis) who is the son of David and Cathy Guetta of Parisian nightclub fame.

Are you that kind of parent?????????

It will only be able to be pulled off if he is going to be super confident and/or good looking.

Are you willing to take that risk? Look at your bank manager or builder, would they hold their own with a name like Elvis? because that could be what your ds looks like one day.
