Hollywood Saint Mary's County (W3)
Die Namensgebung für Hollywood-Orte kann im Einzelfall unterschiedliche Beweggründe haben, wie etwa die Benennung nach der Herkunft des Gründers. Grundsätzlich geht der Ortsname aber auf Umwegen zurück auf engl. "holy" = "heilig".
Vor allem in Großbritannien und in den USA dienten die Stechpalmen zur weihnachtlichen Schmückerei. Die Stechpalmen hatten ursprünglich mystische Bedeutung. Aus den immergrünen Palmenzweigen wurden Stechpalmenzweige, die in das christliche Brauchtum übernommen wurden (vgl. "Palmsonntag"). Jedenfalls entstanden in den USA auch große Pflanzungen mit Stechpalmen, sogenannte "Holly-Farmen". Und so sind die originären Orte namens "Hollywood" auch auf entsprechende "Ilexwälder" zurückzuführen (Stechpalme, bot. "Ilex aquifolium").
