    I live in Germany and we have Weihnachtsmann which is at this point just the German word for Santa Claus with all the Coke optics. We used to have Knecht Ruprecht as a companion who never had racial coding but he is but a faint memory. In the past there was Christkind in the Catholic south who funnily enough was invented by Luther but is ousted by now I think.
