Actually if you really wanted to be literal we each only have one birthday (the day on which we're born) but it is easier to say Happy Birthday than to say Happy Ani. of the day you were born. And Dickens isn't the only man of literature whose Birthday is still observed either. Many still remember William Shakespeare's birthday for example. Or when his birthday is believed to have been anyway. He was baptized on April 26th of 1564 so it's likely his birthday was around the 23rd of the month.
