You are of course right, Steve.
The translation of the titles we have used in op 68 are less common but are actually used in some published editions. There are also a few other pieces in this collection which do not have the most commonly established English titels.

Greetings.

I would also like to add in into that. My teacher asked me to bring the "Santa Claus" piece by Schumann that she gave me. I did not have any idea about what the piece is, until I saw the title"St. Nicholas", so I am guessing that he technically is the Santa Claus so that might be it. It is called Old Bogie, which I am guessing is an old goblic, and the Knight Rupert which the music most likely represents. Santa Claus.........hmm. We still call it by that though.
