The name of the island of St.Kitts in the Caribbean (known as St.Kitts and Nevis) is really a nickname.  What is the real official name of St. Kitts?

The natives established themselves in small communities and came to call the island Liamuiga, or "fertile land".  This name most likely arose from the lush tropical vegetation and crops that must have grown around the central mountain in the island's rich volcanic soil.

The true story of Santa Claus begins with Nicholas, who was born during the third century in the village of Patara. At the time the area was Greek and is now on the southern coast of Turkey. He was the only son of a wealthy merchant named Theophanes and his wife Nonna, who raised him to be a devout Christian. His parents died in an epidemic while Nicholas was still young. Nicholas' devotion to God led him to enter the nearby monastery of Sion and become ordained as a minister. Obeying Jesus' words to "sell what you own and give the money to the poor," Nicholas used his whole inheritance to assist the needy, the sick, and the suffering.

His dad was a wealthy merchant, I don't know what he traded in - so I guess I will toss it to you Katonsdad.
