Sankt Niklaus , known in English as Saint Nicholas went from this name to Kris Kringle to Americanized Santa Claus who was given a fat body, and red and white clothing(by the company Coke), and if you notice most of Coca-Cola's advertisements come out around Christmas, so you get a comfortable feeling with Coke as you do with Christmas.
Jesus...he went from Ioses, to Hezues, too Jozuz, to Americanized Jesus...
How does this all happen?
Names get lost in translation as do their stories:(
Santa was manipulated by a company, and so was Jesus by another company...The Catholic Church.
