The same as he is in all Christian nations all over the world- bringing happiness, warmth and good cheer, distributing gifts, and encouraging people to be nice to each other.

In Welsh he is known as 'Sion Gorrn' (pronounced 'Shwn Gorrn' with the 'r's rolled), which translates as 'John Horn'. The name may refer to the shape of his conical hat, or it may date back to earlier Pagan origins when the Celts worshipped horned gods during the Winter festival of Samhain (pronounced 'Samwen').
