How the Song Noel was named ;bonnie knox wrote:I don't think so. Is this a trick question?No trick , heres the true story ; Back in the 13 century lived the Toro family. the family consisted of Mama toro , Papa Toro , Susie Toro and El Toro. It was Christmas eve and singers from the local church were out caroling. They were singing the song Noel as we know it today but the song had no name back then. One of the carolers said that since this song has no name we will name it the first thing we hear from someone. They approached the Toro family residence and began singing the song with no name. Inside The Toro family's residence was a fight occurring between El and Susie over the last taco. Just as the doorbell rang and the door opened for the carolers , El was about to hit Susie. Papa Toro Yelled No El. Which was the first thing the carolers heard.
