What's My Name?

2/17/2019

My Santa/Wizard guy is in need of a proper name. Right now he's hosting Winston's party, but he's neither in his 'Santa' or 'Wizard' role. He needs a proper name that works for both.

I've been struggling over it ever since I made him. I've had suggestions to call him 'Nicholas the Good' as a Wizard, and 'Nick' when he's Santa. But I'm terrible with names, and can't get past the fact one of my sons is named Nicholas. And another is named Christopher, so that rules out 'Chris' as in 'Kris Kringle' as well. So I've been googling all kinds of name lists.

I'm down to four possible names; Merlin, Klaus, Kriss, or Arthur....

What about Balthazar, Caspar, or Jasper.

Thanks for trying, but two bring to mind two of the Three Wisemen, and the third is a favourite National Park.

I'd vote for Klaus. That's the name they use in one of my favorite Christmas movies, "Santa Claus: The Movie" with one of the best Santas ever, David Huddleston.

I'll think about it.

I'd vote for Klaus too. It seems "old worldly" enough to suit either a wizard or Santa, and yet comfortable enough for slippers and a pipe... or a party hat :o)

I find it so difficult to name anything, so i may just have to think on it some more until the right name presents itself.

I like Nicholas and it would suit him very well, but i understand, why it doesn't work for you.
Christopher or Kriss would be my second choise.

Logically, it would seem the best choice. Maybe I could get used to it. After all, I don't have any issue with St. Nicholas at Christmas. So maybe.
