For history, Elm St. was a black neighborhood on the outskirts of Dallas
and the area became known as 'Deep Ellum' following the local
pronunciation. There are a lot of versions of Deep Ellum, or sometimes
Elem, Blues.

For several years, I lived in Denton, which is close (next county) to
Dallas. I remember hearing "Deep Ellum" a lot (as first I thought I was
hearing "Debellum").
