     I've seen it as Sahuaro and Saguaro, and the former is more popular.  And 
then there's Mojave/Mohave and Navajo/Navaho.  You've really gotta hand it to 
the Anglos for screwing up the local names.  Sort of like the American 
pronounciation of Notre Dame, Baton Rouge, and New Orleans.

     Now try pronouncing bolillo.
