The elves of Ireland folklore or German folklore were tall. Santa's elves in folklore are small. In reality there are no elves.

In many mythologies and folklore, elves are actually depicted as tall, slender and graceful beings, not tiny. The idea of tiny elves may have been popularized in more recent fantasy literature and media, where elves are sometimes portrayed as diminutive magical creatures for storytelling purposes.
