They are all Santa's reindeer. See here for more information: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Santa_Claus'_reindeer
Comet Cupid and Vixen are both reindeer in Santa's reindeer team in popular Christmas folklore. Comet Cupid is known for being fast and agile, while Vixen is known for her grace and agility. Both reindeer have become iconic symbols of the holiday season and are often portrayed as key members of Santa's team.
Those are supposed to be the names of Santa's reindeer. You can hear about them in a famous poem called "'Twas the Night Before Christmas." As to where the names come from, there are a number of theories. All eight reindeer names refer to either their speed or dexterity, both important aspects of flying, especially when you have no wings but instead Christmas magic.So, the names referring to speed are Dasher, Comet (like one hurtling towards earth), Donner and Blitzen. Donner (Donder) and Blitzen refer to the German phrase for thunder and lightning, so maybe instead of speed those names refer to power? And for dexterity there is Dancer and Prancer (like a carefully trained show horse). But that still leaves Cupid (son of Aphrodite aka Eros son of Venus) and Vixen (see Aphrodite). These obviously refer to just how admirable Santa's work is and how much joy and Love is spread in the Holiday season. But as for Rudolph? Sadly, not as much thought went into his name, since he was added in 1939 for Montgomery Ward Department Stores by Robert L. May. Other possible names were Rollo and Reginald, but they didn't really seem to fit.
