I did once jokingly tell my sister Happy Winter Solstice Day, and she didn't like that too much. Though seriously the only people I know celebrate the winter solstice as Christmas, so that may as well be what I say. My family doesn't consider "Happy Holidays" as inclusive. They see it as somehow excluding christians, even though it includes christians as much as any other group.
Of course when I was little, I thought of it as including New Years along with Christmas, because they both happen in the same week.
