If I had to guess I would say we say Merry, because Mary was the mother of Jesus and Happy, because we want to embrace the new year on a positive note!

could be from the witches( who celebrate winter solstice at the same time or should I say first) ; who say- Merry Meet, Merry Part, and Merry meet Again.
