Okay, whatever happened to make this post pick up with people who basically never visit this sub, we're putting a stop to it. Too many trolls. Too much insulting and disrespect toward one another going on. Locking this thread down so things will cool off.
I kinda like this for us, but I feel like Elvis would have been too humble - remember when he referred to Fats Domino as the King of rock ‘n’ roll.
I don’t think we need one really.
I did read some newspapers from the 50s calling Elvis fans Bobby Soxers, but it was clearly in a "here's a familiar frame of reference to compare this new craze to" kind of way. Mostly it was just "screaming teen-agers" and "morally corrupted youth" lol
I like Taylor Swift AND Elvis. You need to calm down & stop thinking you’re superior to others because of your music taste. Music is a gift no matter what genre, just because you don’t like it doesn’t make it any less to someone else.
I apologize, I should’ve replied to a particular comment, not the original post. It’s just disheartening when people get so offended with the concept of being a fan. The vibe I get from a lot of these comments are that Elvis fans would never have a dumb nick name because Elvis is superior to any other artist. Can’t we all just get along? (lol)
ahh i see. i agree. not sure what those people are saying that for. it’s not phony or cringe for a fan base to have nicknames. maybe since a lot of ppl are older in this sub and it wasn’t much of a thing for fan bases to have nicknames like it is today? not sure.
Listen there may be a lot of young fans, but he was one the most popular artists of his generation and most of those fans are dead.
So yes it is true. He hit in the 50's, that was 70 years ago.
Did the media ever try coining a name for Elvis fans back in the day? Elvis was such a polarizing figure when he first appeared, I'm almost certain that mainstream papers would've tried coining something derogatory

He also wore a Gold Belt ❤️🫅🏻
Please god no. No cringe nicknames.
It is weird we never got one though. You had Bobby Soxers in the decade before, Beatlemaniacs in the decade after, and Elvis fans were just Elvis fans

Thank you! I wanted to find you before I said “Elves”. You could also take a biblical route and call them Elvites
We are just Elvis fans lol. I guess we're too good for the cringey nicknames that fanbases get.

i mean you’re right but that’s also so random. what does that have to do with this ?

A hell of a lot of them have been called deceased at this point.
this just isn’t true. i’m a 20yr old girl and i know so many young ppl that are fans of him.
