All Hallow’s Eve
Christians, in an effort to convert pagans, changed Samhain in the 11th century to a three day celebration from October 31st – November 2nd.
The first night of this holiday is called All Hallow’s Eve, which eventually became Halloween.
Somehow Saints’een or Holy’een doesn’t have the same ring about it, does it?

LOL! The thing is, they may mean the same, but when you get used to a certain way a phrase sounds, it’s just not the same. 🙂
