Holy moly (also spelled holy moley) is an exclamation of surprise that dates from at least 1892. [1] It is a reduplication of 'holy', perhaps as a minced oath, a cleaned-up version of a taboo phrase such as "Holy Moses", [2] or "Holy Mary". There is no evidence connecting the phrase to Moly, a sacred herb of Greek mythology. [3]
Homer also describes moly by saying "The root was black, while the flower was as white as milk; the gods call it Moly, Dangerous for a mortal man to pluck from the soil, but not for the deathless gods. All lies within their power". [6] So Ovid describes in book 14 of his Metamorphoses: "A white bloom with a root of black".
