Elvis?

[mrsshears]

I suspect i have a case of raging pregnancy hormones as this is nothing like my other boy choices
Could this ever work?

Only if you use 'the King' as a middle name!!

Sorry - just dont think it would / should / could work!

i know someone at work called Elvis. You get used to it.

No, just no....and i have Maverick on my baby names list!

I think maybe i have seen the film true romance too many times

I know someone who compromised by using the name Presley after her hubby insisted on Elvis for her entire pregnancy. He's a bit of a fan...

I love Elvis with all my heart but please, don't even think about it. He will hate you for it.

No. Think of the poor child at school.

No,no and a thousand times no.

Elvis was on my list, but have decided to get a sausage dog in my old age and give him the name instead. I'd say hormones involved here.

I know an adult Elvis (in his thirties), once you know someone with the name, any associations with anything else do fade. I think it's a great name.

Behave! :)

Ace! But then i'm a bit tempted for Ringo

Well, I like it.

I started a thread on it once.

Didn't do Elvis Costello any harm, did it?

I too know an Elvis (teenager) and I now only think of him when I hear his name. As NoHun said, any previous associations go away. I think it is a cool name - go for it.

"Didn't do Elvis Costello any harm, did it?"

That's just his stage name. His real name is Declan McManus.

It's your hormones!

How about Elliot or Elias?

Only if you feed him burgers and pills.

It's a bad idea fading previous associations or not. In my opinion I feel it is one of those names that even if you really like the sound of it you have to back away. Especially in this day and age it just seems a bit lost. But then again some of the names registered for children last year included a boy called You,Jesuslovesme and Willieboy... I thought someone was supposed to stop these children from the humiliation of terrible names, they must have called in sick?

Love it!

(Holds up a megaphone) 'Oy, pregnant lady - step away from the name.' Don't worry, Mrs you'll think of something perfect.

If you want somebody in your life called Elvis, eithr get q cat or change your own name. You must see you can't possibly saddle another unconsenting human being with the name.

Oh god no. No.

It's a fabulous name for a crocodile.
