They're called Christmas trees because Christians in Europe conquered the pagan religions there and then incorporated pagan rituals and symbols into the Christian religion, renaming and claiming them as Christian.

Right, Christian, unrelated to Chanukah.

I think you're missing the point of the hannukah reference.

Not sure if that's accidental or on purpose.
