It's not the Spanish feminine, it's bastardized Dutch.
The name Santa Claus is derived from "Sinterklaas", the Dutch name for the mythical character based on St. Nicholas. He is also known there by the name of Sint Nicolaas which explains the use of the two fairly dissimilar names Santa Claus and Saint Nicholas or St. Nick.

You have unlocked the mystery - who usually does the Christmas shopping in the home? It's obvious - Santa Claus is actually Mrs. Claus and Mr. Claus is at home watching football.
