Sure, I've noticed it.
There's the joke about the Dyslexic Devil Worshiper who sold his soul to Santa.

lol hahah. Yeah Ol' Saint Nick is the Devil!
Interesting fact though, Christmas has nothing to do with Jesus at all whatsoever, in fact it is a later addition by the Roman-pagan Church to beat off the competition of other mystery religions at the time, also to convert pagans who just wanted to celebrate and hang out on that day. Christmas is so pagan and having the birth on that day is probably the most pagan and only makes the Jesus-God created by Pagan Rome from what they corrupted of the traditional Ebonites and Gnostics, into a average sun-god symbol of a mystery pagan religion.
Even if on the 25th Christmas was abolished in Christians home as far as its connection to Santa would do little to diminish its hypocrisy and stupidity, since its a pagan day of celebration for the winter solstice. So they basically are screwed either way, this is true with Easter as well, as it is pagan as well.

Sorry but the fact that the two 'names' have letters in common is NOT an 'acronym' ... Santa is LATIN for SAINT ... SAINT NICHOLAS was a REAL PERSON in the middle ages, who 'gave money' by putting it into the 'shoes' of three girls whose father was 'too poor' to give them dowries, so the girls who would have been 'doomed to spinsterhood' got to marry the men they wanted to marry. How we got from there to Santa in his Red Suit takes us through the poem, The Night Before Christmas (written by a father for his kids, when they were 'snowed in' and he couldn't get to town to buy gifts) and the Coca Cola company's advertising around or just before WWII ... and Santa ALWAYS comes to my house ... I don't put out milk and cookies, I put out Irish Whiskey and cheesecake ... and a carrot for each of the 9 reindeer (yes, there are 9 ... Rudolph LEADS, and there are four pairs ...

As long as the focus is off Santa and on Jesus' birth, there's no problem. The anagram is a coincidence.

No... I'm not.
My family celebrates the birth of Jesus.
On Christmas eve we always had a birthday party for Jesus when our children were young.
They are grown now and I hope when they have children they will continue the tradition. I think they will as it was always something they looked forward to each Christmas season.

Isn't an acronym letters that abbreviate something, not a mix up of the letters?
Santa can be an acronym for...
Sweet
And
Naughty
Treats
(for)
All
Ok, so there might be better...

LOL...
well, with the correction...
How could we have missed it?
Unless we'd been living under a rock for the past decade...
Every single Christmas season we hear this from every smarmy atheist on the internet...

I always told my children there was no santa clause. Christmas is about honoring Christ not about a guy that brings toys. I do not mind the gift giving as long as they know it does not come from santa. Same belief about the easter bunny too.

Santa means Saint in another language. Other languages are not evil. Capisce?
