Santa's Sleigh
So how good is your memory? Can you name all of Santa's eight reindeer?
Here they are, how many did you guess correctly?
• Dasher
• Dancer
• Prancer
• Vixen
• Comet
• Cupid
• Donner (other: Donder / original: Dunder)
• Blitzen (other: Bliksem / original: Blixem)

However recently in 2000 an English professor has proved that the original Christmas rhyme was written by Major Henry Livingston, Jr. (1748-1828) in 1807 and called - Account of a Visit from St. Nicholas. Moore got credited with the nursery rhyme after an acquaintance published it in a newspaper. Over the years he made many alterations to it, which explains why there are various spellings of the reindeer names - Donner means thunder in German and Donder means thunder in Dutch.
Rudolf was not part of the original reindeer but came later from the song -
