I think it’s time for us, as a society, to move on from saying Crimbo. Nearly half of Brits agree that ‘Crimbo’ is crapAccording to new data from YouGov, 46% of Brits dislike this word, too, with older people disliking it in particular. However, it isn’t the least popular alternative name for Christmas which goes to, bafflingly, ‘Crimble’. As a lifelong Beatles fan, I’m afraid I do have to denounce this and so do 68% of Brits who dislike or hate the term. We don’t care either way about them apparently with 39-44% neither liking nor disliking either Christmas substitute.
