while it seems everyone else says ‘happy christmas’
which imo is a way better phrase, it’s very … pragmatic. happiness is more attainable than merriment. how often is anyone merry?

I’m from the UK, and I’ve always said merry.
I doubt it’s any more prevalent in a specific country and more likely specific to individual families and friends.
For example, i always thought it was an american thing to say happy christmas.
Definitely not an American thing. It’s ALL Merry over here.
Either way, happy and merry Christmas to you :)
Happy Merry to you too!
In the US, it’s incredibly rare if not impossible to find someone who says “Happy Christmas.” It’s either “Merry Christmas” or “Happy Holidays.”
