Great link wynnleaf!  

I especially like the connection to Lugh.  Brings to mind my old post 
from Aug. 18, 2002, HPfGU #42864, which includes, in pertinent part:

*********************
Holly is also associated with the Celtic sun-god Lugh, the patron 
of sorcery no less. (I noted before posting that the Lugh connection 
has been suggested by Ronale7; see earlier discussions of this myth 
in various threads by searching for "Lugh"). 

A reading of the myth of Lugh 
provides many fertile comparisions between the Celtic hero and 
Harry: Oidche Lugnasa (Lugh's feast day) is HP's Birthday, July 31; 
Prophesy that evil king Balor (Lugh's grandpa) would be killed by 
grandson leads to Balor's failed attempt to kill Lugh; Lugh was 
brought up in the care of a master magician, to keep him safe; when 
Balor (a Fromorian) tries to take over the Tuatha de Danann, and has 
killed the Tautha king, Lugh emerges as the hero of the battle and 
the new king of his people. hmmmm.
**********************

And from my #42894, of the same date:
***************
In consideration of the interest in Stoned!Harry, here's a little 
something for you, Eloise. Lugh killed his evil grandfather with a 
*stone.* 
*********************

Lots of fertile ground with the Gaurdians of the Hallows, as well.

Talisman, who did say the title does "multiple" duty.
