St. Elvis?

from the popular blog "Whispers in the Loggia":

"On a final note, my resident expert on All Things Elvis said the other day that the King bristled at what's become his most common nickname. So the story goes, seeing a sign while onstage that read "Elvis is the King," Presley pointed it out, saying into the mic 'Jesus is the King -- not me.' "

Well, it made me smile.

So did this:

(copied from THAT website:)
Feast: September 12
When St. Patrick arrived in Ireland, St. Elvis was already an active Bishop. He founded a monastery in Emly. It is said that he implored the King of Cashel to grant the Aran islands to the newly arrived St. Enda of Aran, disciple of St. Ninian of Whithorn. St. Elvis was also one of the earliest Saints of Ireland to sail northwards in search of "white martyrdom" (voluntary exile for Christ's sake). He landed at "farthest Thule," that is, Iceland, where he reposed. On their voyages, St. Brendan and his monks later visited those monks of St. Elvis' community who were still alive, describing their way of life to be so thoroughly centred upon Christ as to approximate the life of those that dwell in Paradise.

I wonder if the good people of St. Ailbe in the city realize their patron is also known as St. Elvis? I wonder how many eighth-grade classes know that Elvis would be a perfectly acceptable Confirmation name?
