I don't say Merry Christmas after Christmas Day. I would wish someone a happy new year for the first week or so of the new year.

Other people may say "Merry Christmas" a little later than I do. And note that the Orthodox religions don't celebrate until January 7th (or is it the 6th?) so they have a longer period of time for that to work.
