Luvachicken Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 I just looked at the strawberry santas on the all things nice page and agreed that the 25th Dec chap should be called Father Christmas. We have Father Christmas in our house. Santa is American isn't he ? I don't live in America. I just wondered who comes to visit your house on 25th Dec ?

Looney Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Santa_Claus This gives an explanation of why Santa Claus is called that. We call him all sorts here! Father Christmas, Santa, Saint Nic.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LolaLayla Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 When I was little, in England he was Father Christmas but on moving to Scotland he was Santa. Also I noticed it is more likely to hear Merry Christmas than Happy Christmas here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

patsylabrador Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 Whatever pops out. Usually Santa because it's quick to say. He's got so many different names I don't think he minds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snowberry Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 I loved the video Fred On the basis of that, I have to be on Father Christmas's team Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goosey Lucy Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 For me it's got to be Father Christmas, Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lavenders_Blue Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 He's Father Christmas in this house. My nephews call him Santa though so I would say Santa if I was talking to them. I bet he doesn't mind either way though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soapdragon Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 FC in thishouse...Santa always sounds American to me rather than British. However, YS is called Nicholas and loves the idea of St Nicholas so we may be'going continental'! If I remember correctly, in Italy they have a Christmas witch called La Beffana (spelling may be a bit wonky; it was a long time ago!) I guess, as I do all the presently stuff, I qualify as a Christmas Witch!!!!!!!!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
