19. Can you name all of Santa's reindeer's? Yes. Dasher, Dancer, Prancer, Vixen, Comet, Cupid, Donder & Blitzen (Gene Autry misheard Donder’s name as Donner, but as any “’T’was The Night Before Christmas” aficionado knows, Donder & Blitzen are German for Thunder & Lightning.) Rudolph and Olive are much later inventions. (That would be Olive, the Other Reindeer. There’s a children’s book.)
