"Santa Claus, Kriss Kringle, or St. Nicholas" by Anonymous is a fully illustrated poem published in the late 19th century. This charming work explores the multifaceted identity of the beloved Christmas figure, combining elements of folklore and festive cheer. The poem reflects on the various names attributed to Santa Claus and addresses the playful nature of his character, intended for children and families. In the poem, Santa Claus, who embraces identities as Kriss Kringle and St. Nicholas, engages in a light-hearted conversation with a young girl who seeks to understand which name he prefers. Throughout the verses, Santa humorously describes his domestic life and the affectionate nicknames his wife calls him, highlighting the contrast between his larger-than-life persona during the holiday season and his more modest self at home. Ultimately, the poem conveys themes of love, joy, and the spirit of Christmas, giving readers a delightful glimpse into the warmth and whimsy of Santa's character.
