Dickens called his story "A Christmas Carol" because its claimed he expected the story to be repeated and shared and it would bring people together just as the singing of Christmas carols would spreading joy and brining families together each season throughout London. His carol was a song of praise of the Christmas season and of the redemption of Mr Ebenezer Scrooge.In keeping with the title Dickens called the five chapters of the book "staves." A musical stave is a stanza with a consistent theme and mood. Each stave in the story delivers a different message and each has a definite mood. As in a carol each stave can stand alone but each stave contributes to the carol's overall theme.

Charles Dickens uses staves throughout the story to give the readers a more condensed feeling of christmas which shows us joy and happiness, both things that scrooge does not have. Also i elaborates on the title A christmas carol to give it the Carol theme of the story...i think...i hope that helps though
the theme of a Christmas carol is Christmas spirit. It is to not be selfish and greedy and to give to charity and help and be kind to others.
A true Christmas carol has to have a religious theme

just read the book!
He achieved a dark theme, ghostly in its approach as this is exactly what he wanted
Dicken's uses the term "staves" to mark the chapters of A Christmas Carol (published in 1843), but does not do so for any or his other books. The term is based on the book's title. Since a Christmas carol is a song, he names its divisions "staves", using a musical term meaning "verse" or "stanza" of a song.(A related, but not identical use of the term "stave" - singular now usually "staff" - is found in musical notation, to refer to one set of lines on which musical notes are written.)Note that Dickens used a similar device to denote the divisions of his next two Christmas books: the divisions of The Chimes (1844) are "Quarters" after the quarter-hour sounding of clock chimes; The Cricket on the Hearth (1845) is divided into "Chirps".

The main part of a Christmas carol is typically called the chorus. It is the part that is repeated throughout the song and often contains the main message or theme of the carol.
Redemption and good will, love for fellow men and oneself.
