Christmas Reindeer
The name "reindeer" comes from the Old Norse word "hreinn", which means "deer". Over time, the word evolved into "hreindearr" in Old English, and eventually into "reindeer" in modern English. The name has been used to describe this animal for centuries, and it is a fitting name for such a magnificent creature.
