Elvis was named after his father, Vernon Elvis Presley, and Mr. Presley's good friend in Tupelo, Aaron Kennedy. Aron was the spelling the Presleys chose, apparently to make it similar to the middle name of Elvis' stillborn identical twin, Jesse Garon Presley. Jesse was apparently named after Vernon's father, Jessie Presley, although the spelling was slightly different.
Toward the end of his life, Elvis sought to change the spelling of his middle name to the traditional and biblical Aaron. In the process he learned that official state records had inexplicably listed it as Aaron, and not Aron as on his original birth records. Knowing Elvis' plans for his middle name, Aaron is the spelling his father chose for Elvis' tombstone, and it's the spelling his estate has designated as the official spelling when the middle name is used today.

Hello, I was just at Graceland on 12/30/06. I saw that the official web site for Elvis info is www.ELVIS.com. I went to the site to get this info myself and it shows Aaron. http://www.elvis.com/elvisology/bio/elvis_overview.asp
PS. My grandmother's name was Joan (per her birth certificate as that's how the doctor wrote it for my great grandmother), however, it was intended to be spelled/pronounced Joann. I hear that happened a lot back then.

some people think that he isnt really dead so misspelt his name on his gravestone cos he was superstitious.
