FROM CLASSIC LITERATURE A nisse (usually Norwegian) & a tomten (usually Swedish) are similar characters. They are both solitary, mischievous domestic sprites responsible for the protection & welfare of the farmstead & its buildings. Tomten literally means "homestead man" & is derived from the word tomt which means homestead or building lot. Nisse is derived from the name Nils which is the Scandinavian form of Nicholas. Final verse of the poem The Christmas Tomten by Abraham Viktor Rydberg Midwinter's nightly frost is hard Brightly the stars are beaming Fast asleep is the lonely yard All, till morn will be dreaming. Faint is the moon; & snow-drifts shine, Gistening white on fir & pine, Covers on rooflets making. None but tomten is waking.
