no, i mean someone could pretend to be santa claus of course but that wouldn't actually be him.
Santa Claus originated from a Dutch man, St.Claus who would give presents to the kids in Holland some time around the 1700's I think. I can't be 100% sure but that's where he came from.
You can't just make something real because you really REALLY want it. Life doesn't work like that

Belief is what makes reality. Here is an example. If I was a hermit that never left my home and the only people that knew me where on the internet. And I told all of these people that I was an eighty year old man. When they realized that I had died they would talk about me being an older man living a long life, when in my reality I am a young woman. The people on the internet would know no different, because they never met me. So their belief becomes reality. So it's not how many people believe or what you want, but what you believe makes it real to you.

If you choose to believe that santa is real in your heart and deep down in your soul then he is. There was a saint nicholas in the 16 or 17th century that made gifts and took them to needy children but I don,t know if it was at xmas or everyday.I was always taught that santa was real until I caught my dad at 8 years old dressed as santa putting the gifts under the tree then the jig was up.I did keep quiet about it though for my 6 year old sister.

Santa Claus was in fact based upon a real man who was called Saint Nicholas. He was the one who provided a father with three bags of gold ( one for each of his daughters ) as a dowry.

no, unfortunately santa claus is not real and will never be real. It is very similar with the Devil. Christians try to make people believe that the devil is real so that humans will always behave morally and never sin or else they risk the chance of going to hell. But the devil does NOT exist; the Jewish religion is right, christians are confused and ignorant.

Whether he was real in the first place, he's still real, and if he wasn't, even if the whole world started to believe in him, that doesn't make him real.

Works for God and Jesus and angels and Satan and demons... why not Santa and the flying reindeer and the elves?
