I never said it would be a proper quiz by the way!
* How many reindeer are employed by Santa?
Two.
* What are their names (Spelling need not be correct)?
Rudolf and Olive.
* What sex is "the red nosed reindeer"?
Female.
* Why do you say that?
Only female reindeer keep their antlers throughout winter.
Ok, maybe a bit of clarification is required for the answers to the
first two questions above:
Everyone knows abouit Rudolf, so that's one reindeer.
The song of the same name has the words "Olive, the other reindeer used
to laugh and call him names" - so that's two. No others are mentioned! ;-)
So, two reindeer are in Santa's employ, Rudolf and Olive.

And he whistled, and shouted, and call'd them by name:
"Now, Dasher! Now, Dancer! Now, Prancer, and Vixen!
"On, Comet! On, Cupid! On, Donder and Blitzen!
of course a Scots Santa maybe didn't want to spend too much on dear Deer
