The holly tree
Holli is a girl’s name of English origin, taken from the Old English term holen for “the holly tree.” Famed in Christianity for its scarlet fruit, which is said to symbolize the suffering of Jesus Christ and his crown of thorns, holly and all the names that hail from it are bound to be a bold expression of baby’s faith. Holly is also a huge part of the Christmas tradition and is often hung in dwellings and on doorways for good luck. Deck the halls every season with sweet and wholesome Holli!
