You are correct that under certain circumstances a holding name will be
formed. However, those circumstances did not occur. Only Laurel can form
a holding name. Since the name was returned in-kingdom, the device had to 
be returned as well. Your confusion is not at all uncommon.

What I meant to say was...lots of people exhibit that same confusion over
the same point... :)
