Wonder how Santa got the Kris Kringle moniker. There is a historical basis for the Saint Nick but Kris Kringle?? Cool it. Many people have several names. Growing up, my name was a short for a longer name so I had a legal name and a nickname. Then in college my friends told me my nickname did not suit me and gave me a new one. So I am known by those three names.
