Elon is mostly associated with the guy who got rich off of his parents' apartheid emerald mine, so naming your child this now would give you some weird looks. I suggest using a similar-sounding name like Eli or even a cognate like Alon. The meaning is nice though, oak trees are seen as a symbol of strength and endurance, it's quite a unique name overall.

C'mon, everyone knows Elon Musk! It's too associated with him.
Elon is a nice name. The Musk guy owns Tesla. He's nice.

Pre-Elon Musk being a household name, it made me think of Elon College in North Carolina (USA). I knew a lot of rich party kids who went there; it has a reputation of being an expensive school (ergo elite), when you're rich but not smart enough to go to Duke or Vanderbilt. I like the simplicity of the name, but I also think some people might think it's a typo for Leon. Maybe not anymore, though, since Elon Musk is so famous.

Shout out to Elon Musk for ruining this name for like 20 years.
