Santa Claus is a variation of a European folk tale based on the historical figure Saint Nicholas, a bishop from the region that is now present-day Turkey, who gave presents to the poor. This inspired the mythical figure of Sinterklaas, the subject of a major celebration in the Netherlands and Belgium, Germany (where his alleged date of death, December 6, is celebrated the evening before on December 5), which in turn inspired both the myth and the name of Santa Claus (actually a mispronunciation of the Dutch word "Sinterklaas" by the English settlers of New Amsterdam (later renamed New York)), in those countries Saint Nicholas is celebrated as a distinct character with a religious touch, Santa Claus is also celebrated on Christmas eve.

Yes, I was Santa Claus when I was 18 for a mini mall in my community. It was fun, and I made lots of children happy.
My mother also was Santa in a Large indoor Mall, in Chicago. When the Santa got sick and they need some one for the parade.
The photographer and Mrs Claus was really happy. To know Santa was a lady, 70 years old. Every one had a lot of fun. And photo;s where taken by all.

Why of course. Anytime there is something good in the world to give hope to and for you have to believe. If we didn't believe in people like Old Saint Nick then who would we believe in.
