[edit] Connection with the True Cross?

I had always thought that the name Holyrood was derived from the legend that pieces of the True Cross were housed there. Does anyone have any information on this? -- ML5 09:30, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Pronunciation

There has been much debate in Scotland over the pronunciation of Holyrood. Most television newscasters and politicians say Holly-rood. Does anyone have any information on the traditional way of pronouncing it? If so, I think it should be added to the article's page. -- ML5 09:30, 4 July 2006 (UTC)
