Dasher, Dancer, Prancer, Vixen,Comet, Cupid, Donder (as I knew it as a child, now Donner) , Blitzen, and the most famous reindeer of all, Rudolph! (Had to sing the names in my head from the song, lol)

Doc, Happy, Sleepy, Sneezy, Dopey, Bashful, Grumpy. We had the set of cocoa cups when I was a child. There were 8 kids in my family and 8 cups, one being Snow White. Each kid had a cup. Mine was Happy :)

My favorite is Dopey. Thanks for the info on Dunder,Donder,Donner. I finally have my own smiley face to use sometimes. This took me about 10 minutes to figure one out.*~*(Okay, so it really looks like twinkling eyes and a nose!)

Most people say Donner. But, I have A Little Golden Book and the name in the story is Donder not Donner. I don't know when or why his name was changed from Donder to Donner. Do any of you know the answer?

It was originally Dunder, then Donder, then Donner. Blitzens name changed too, originally Blixem, then Blixen.

Wiki-pedia:

In An American Anthology, 1787–1900, Edmund Clarence Stedman reprints the 1844 Clement Clarke Moore version of the poem, including the German spelling of "Donder and Blitzen," rather than the original 1823 version using the Dutch spelling, "Dunder and Blixem." [4] Both phrases translate as "Thunder and Lightning" in English, though German for thunder is now spelled Donner, and the Dutch words would nowadays be spelled Donder and Bliksem.

probably b/c of that song that Hop-a-Long Cassidy made.
