What does Elvis mean?
/ˈɛlvɪs/2 syllables

Elvis is inseparable from Elvis Presley, the American singer known as the King of Rock and Roll, whose career in the 1950s and '60s reshaped popular music.

Elvis has star power built right in, bold and a little theatrical. It suits a pet with an unmistakable presence, the one who struts into a room like they own it.
