Patrick

In English, a man's name meaning "a patrician, or a noble".

Some folks name their kids Patrick because of their Irish background, or after Saint Patrick, the patron saint of Ireland.

Patricks range from the super athletic (such as Patrick Eaves) to the theatrical elite (such as Patrick Swayze) to great political thinkers (such as Patrick Pearse).

Patrick can be shortened to Pat and Paddy, and can be feminized as Patty, Pat, or Patricia. There are over three dozen different translations for the name.

Patrick is an iconic name for the Irish people, especially the Irish men, though Russians, Dutchmen, and others who aren't necesarily Irish or Irish-related have been named Patrick, too.

Interestingly, the accredited source of the name, Saint Patrick, wasn't Irish at all! He was actually a Roman citizen of Britain.
There have been several PATRICKs throughout history. Saint Patrick was a great Scottish missionary, Patrick Pearse wrote plays and supported the Easter Rising, and Paddy Bradley's an Irish footballer.

As for me, Patrick, I hope to become a great actor and singer. Maybe even a writer or director.

Patrick

All around BAMF. really cool and well liked by his peers. His girlfriend loves him more then anything. Hauls ass at snowboarding and pretty much every other extreme sport. Trouble maker at school but very funny. Teachers hate Patrick, Patrick hates teachers. nice to everyone that is nice to him, but you don't want to make him mad, because Patrick has a VERY short fuse. He may just beat the shit out of anyone that says anything bad about him. He always stands up for his friends.

Patrick

A man too busy doing incredible work to realize how beautiful he really is. He's a little shy and doesn't always believe that the woman he sees wants him bad, in the worst possible way. Is so desirable, lovable, sexy and smart that he can drive a previously incorruptible woman to self-satisfy 3-7 x a day just thinking of him, FOR TWO YEARS. Has a beautiful face complemented by a very nice ass and very kissable thighs.
Patrick is too good to be true: I jism a little just thinking about him.
