Yule goat! That's cute. Do you actually call santa that, or is the Yule Goat a separate beeing? We namely have the Yule Goat (julbock) as something different than santa.. but he too used to give presents in the old days.
I don't like: incest, except in the cases where I do. This sentence made me smile for some reason. I love when people are a little inconsistent :)
Yes, we actually call Santa "Joulupukki" which means Yule Goat! I guess we may have originally borrowed the Swedish word, unless you guys borrowed ours for once. :D Most of the Finnish and Swedish Christmas customs seem fairly similar anyway. But, looks like we just transformed the old being into Santa and used the name.
Hehe, a little inconsistency keeps things interesting. And it's always fun when something arrives that makes you go "I shouldn't like that... but I do". In this case, I say aunt/nephew is not quite as bad as the in-family incest things which really squick me out though (but then again, there's a fandom where I don't seem to mind sibling incest... my squicks don't care for being logical).
