Santa Claus, St. Nicholas, Father Christmas, Kris Kringle, or simply Santa, is a legendary gift-giving icon who distributes presents to sleeping children and adults who have been "good" all year; traditionally during the night of December 24, Christmas Eve. The popular American form Santa Claus originated as a mispronunciation of Dutch Sinterklaas, which is a contracted form of Sint Nicolaas (Saint Nicholas).

I think you'd be better off if you search for history of santa claus on google, wikipedia and snopes. They have good information on these things. I can tell you but there's a lot of information..

Good ole Santa. Nobody knows who he is. Nobody knows where he came from. He does exist. I've seen pictures of his house at the North Pole.

Saint Nicholas was a man that lived back in the day.
I read a story about it somewhere before,
why they decided to turn him into some kind of legend confuses me though

St. Nicholas was the bishop of Smyrna, now called Izmir, located in Turkey. Legend has it that he was very kind to children.
