Dasher, Dancer, Prancer, Vixen, Comet, Cupid, Donder and Blitzen.
The legend of Santa's reindeer was created in a famous poem by Clement Clarke Moore (1779-1863). Clement was the son of the bishop of the Protestant Episcopal Church in New York. The poem "A Visit From Saint Nicholas" was written as a Christmas gift for his children in 1822. The poem is currently better known by the title "The Night Before Christmas" from its famous opening line.

The names are Dasher, Dancer, Prancer, Vixen, Comet, Cupid, Donner and Blitzen. They originated from the Childrens story "It was the night before Christmas" by Clement Moore.

The names are Dasher, Dancer, Prancer, Vixen, Comet, Cupid, Donner and Blitzen, all the reindeer were in fact male as the female reindeer sheds its antlers during the winter.
Rudolf was introduced as he had the only light and a permanent horn, that is why all the ladies followed him.

Dasher, Dancer, Prancer, Vixen, Comet, Cupid, Donner and Blitzen. There's a rumour that Rudolph was in fact a moose.

Originally in 1823 it went like this "Now Dasher! now, Dancer! now, Prancer and Vixen! On, Comet! on, Cupid! on Dunder and Blixem!
Starting 1949 until now its "You know Dasher and Dancer, and Prancer and Vixen; Comet and Cupid, and Donner and Blitzen"... and of course Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer.
