Great story. I'd always thought that 'Father Christmas' was the British names and 'Santa Claus' the US one (originally Dutch) but it looks from your account as if they the two names were interchangeable - or had become so by the time of the parades. And 'Mother Christmas' - there's an interesting wrinkle . . .
