All Ray Colwell wants for Christmas is to change his name to Elvis.
Ray, deputy court keeper at Brighton Magistrates Court, is already known as Elvis to colleagues, police officers, magistrates and prisoners.
Solicitor Andreas Serghis suggested he might as well change his name legally and be known as Elvis Aaron Colwell.
Mr Serghis offered to handle all the legal arrangements in time for Christmas.
The front room of Ray's home in Forge Close, Portslade, features a shrine to the King, including posters, calendars, clocks, medals and records.
He also performs as Presley three times a year at a holiday camp in Devon.
Ray, 41, said: "Changing my name is something I have had on my mind for a long time.
"It makes sense - no one calls me Ray. When I told my wife, she just laughed.
"A lot of paperwork will need changing, such as my passport and my bank details, but it will be worth it.
"His music means so much to me and thousands of others."
When Ray started working at the court in 1997, he told his new colleagues how much he loved Presley.
They asked if they could call him Elvis to prevent any confusion with another Ray, fellow security officer Ray Manson.
Father-of-four Ray was named after his father but the name will be preserved - Ray is the middle name of his eight-year-old son Sheldon.
Ray enjoys taking part in the talent contests at the Park resort in Bideford Bay in Devon, whether he wins or not.
His dream is to make the pilgrimage to Elvis' Gracelands home in Memphis.
He also wants to renew his wedding vows while dressed as Elvis - although his wife Fiona said: "I'll believe it when I see it."
