Do you often forget the lyrics to songs you've been singing your entire life?

Umm there's 9

I was coming here to go smartazz and say it's Donder and not Donner.  I guess all three versions are acceptable.

In traditional lore, Santa Claus's sleigh is led by eight reindeer: Dasher, Dancer, Prancer, Vixen, Comet, Cupid, Dunder (variously spelled Donder and Donner), and Blixem (variously spelled Blixen and Blitzen), with Rudolph being a 20th-century inclusion.

The names Dunder and Blixem derive from Dutch words for thunder and lightning, respectively.

 

[shadyridr]

I mean its the first two lines of the song:

You know Dasher and Dancer and Prancer and Vixen,
you know Comet and Cupid and Donner and Blitzen,

Thanks for the spoiler, shady!

 

[PIK95]

Why is Cupid pulling a sleigh.  Shouldn't she/he be able to get by on Valentines day royalties?

Vixen and cupid screwed me

 

[Limp Ditka]

Vixen and cupid screwed me

Yeah. Cupid screwed me too by sending a vixen or six my way over the years.

 

[Snoopy]

I thought Comet was busy cleaning the kitchen sink.

 

[Max Power]

Is Rudolph Donners son?

 

[mr roboto]

Donner is a ####### cannibal. 

 

[Limp Ditka]

But really... how do you #### up the Cupid and Vixen names? Donner I get. What kind of name is Donner anyway?

 

[Cjw_55106]

Is Rudolph Donners son?

From the internets:

In Rankin/Bass's holiday special, he is Donner's son, and his mother is a tan doe who is called Mrs. Donner. In GoodTimes' retelling, Rudolph's father is Blitzen, and his mother is named Mitzi.

Donner/Blitzen = Thunder/Lightning

It's German.

 

[Max Power]

doner is on point though

Mitzi Gaynor?

 

[Ditkaless Wonders]

Donder

 

[Cjw_55106]

Mitzi Gaynor?

Grandpa, is that you? 

 

[Andy Dufresne]

Huh. I guess there's more to the story:

Santa's reindeer were first named in "A Visit from St. Nicholas" (better known by its first line, "Twas the Night Before Christmas") in 1823. In the original printing, the final two reindeers' names are Dunder and Blixem, which are Dutch for "thunder and lightning." In an 1844 printing by Clement Clarke Moore, who is credited as being the author, these names are changed to Donder and Blitzen.>

(This figures into a debate over whether Moore really wrote the poem in question, which is too complicated to get into here.)

The 1949 song "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer" calls them Donner and Blitzen, which are German for "thunder and lightning." This is how they're most widely known today.

 

[Ditkaless Wonders]

Grandpa, is that you?

[Ditkaless Wonders]
