Poll: Is it St Patrick's Day or Paddy's Day to you?

Give it to us straight. Be honest.

WE ARE NOT here to entertain talk about ‘St Patty’s Day’.

But there is a tendency to diverge from the official ‘St Patrick’s Day’ moniker in Ireland.

How do you find yourself referring to the national holiday of our patron saint?

Poll Results:

St Patrick's Day (7655)

Paddy's Day (4136)

Lá Fhéile Pádraig (671)

Another variation (131)
