Blitzen

Santa Claus's reindeer are a team of
flying reindeer traditionally held to pull the sleigh of
Santa Claus and help
him deliver Christmas gifts. The
commonly cited names
of the reindeer are based on those used
in the 1823 poem A Visit from St. Nicholas, arguably the
basis of reindeer's popularity as Christmas symbols, where
they are called Dasher and Dancer, Prancer and Vixen,
Comet and Cupid, and Dunder and Blixem. Dunder was later
changed to Donder and — in other works — Donner,
and Blixem was later changed to Blitzen. The
subsequent popularity of the Christmas song "Rudolph the
Red-Nosed Reindeer" has led to another reindeer name joining
the popular roll-call.
