From a "technical" perspective...

Christ wasn't born on Christmas. According to historical facts about the birth story - Christ was most likely born in the spring.

Pope Julius chose the date that we use today in 300 A.D. The reason the December date was chosen was to supplant the various pagan winter solstice festivals with the Christian holiday.

The first day of Christmas is December 25th, but a lot of people have their main celebration of the holiday on Christmas Eve...the night of December 24th.

My sources say fall because the shepherds were in the fields with their flocks. And as far as "pagan" goes, the celebration of the rebirth of the sun is Egyptian. And yes, very pagan according to Christianity.
