Patty? Are there actually men known as Patty?! Pat maybe, but Isn't Patty usually short for Patricia? The day is known in Ireland as Paddy's day. Paddy is a derivative of Padraic which is the Irish version of the name Patrick, and since he's the patron saint of Ireland, it seems "Paddy's day" makes more sense...
google "st. patty's" (use quotes): over 2 million results. "st. paddy's" (quotes): 621 thousand results. I think we can see which is more popularly used. There's no D in Patrick. But, I will see you motherfuckers at the parade =]
