Is there a real Santa Claus?

The prominent white-bearded man in red and white suit whom children and adults call Santa Claus, is a legendary figure.
His personal qualities and name were derived from an early Christian saint, name NICOLAS.
He is known to go out in disguise whenever he gives presents to children. That's why, people began to think of St. Nicolas as the giver of unexpected gifts. In 17th century , the English settles started to call him " Santa Claus.

Today is the day for St. Nicolas, it is a practice here in Germany to celebrate it by giving something to children specially in a mall, we go malling this day i have lots of crew in the mall wearing the customs of Sta. Claus. Me and my husband received also some sweet things from them they go around and greet people inside the mall.
