The Irish hate that we call it St. Patty’s. It’s St. Paddy. From Merriam-Webster: St. Patrick's Day can be referred to in informal contexts as “St. Paddy's Day.” Paddy is the shortened form of the original Irish spelling of Patrick, which is Pádraig, and for this reason is usually preferred over “St. Patty's Day,” which could also be mistaken for the shortened form of the name Patricia.

I'll weave his web of rhyme,

Upon the summer night.

We'll leave this worldly time,

On his winged flight.
