I know the genus is "Ilex" and it looks to me like ilex aquifolim, but that's a european plant and my backyard is in the western united states.

It's still too young to bare fruit, so I can't give a description there, but I can say that it grew fast and straight up.

Not a holly - looks like one of the evergreen oaks, perhaps Coast Live Oak Quercus agrifolia

For me looks like much more an oak (Quercus sp.) than a holly.
