Alvis is from Old Norse origin, its meaning is ‘all wise’. In Norse mythology, the dwarf Alviss who fell in love with daughter(Thrud) of Thor, the God of thunder. Thor was not pleased with this so he tricked Alvis by asking him questions until the sun rose, at which time the dwarf was turned into stone; possibly a modern blend. First appeared in the mid-20th century, but never widespread. Its pronunciation is (AL-viss).
Alvis cars were produced by the manufacturer Alvis Car. He is a manufacturer of luxury cars and military vehicles, which later became Alvis plc; Alvis cars after its demerger for British Leyland. Became the UK’s largest armoured vehicles manufacturer.
