About Nigul
The Estonian name Nigul is derived from the Ancient Greek name Nicholas, meaning "victory of the people." This name originated from two Greek elements: "nī́kē" (victory, success) and "lāós" (people, people assembled).
In the Eastern Orthodox Church, Roman Catholic Church, and Anglican Churches, St. Nicholas is celebrated on December 6th. In Greece, the name is particularly popular in regions near the sea, as St. Nicholas is the patron saint of seafarers.
St. Nicholas, a 4th-century Christian saint and Greek Bishop of Myra, is believed to be the inspiration for the modern-day figure of Santa Claus. The name Santa Claus is derived from the Dutch Sinterklaas, which is a corrupted transliteration of St. Nikolaos.
