No, Mickey Mouse was never called Steamboat Willie. That is simply the name of one of his first (and most well-known) Cartoons. The title is a reference to Steamboat Bill Jr., a popular contemporary film starring Buster Keaton.

Who is this the famous Disney charcter?

While the question really refers to which generation is watching the Disney movies and the Disney Channel, I believe that the most famous Disney Character would be Mickey Mouse. Steamboat Willy was the first animated short film with a completely post-produced soundtrack of music, dialogue, and sound effects. Steamboat Willy was also the first brick that led to Walt Disney paving the way in animated films till present day. In Steamboat Willy, Mickey Mouse was the main character and has remained a lovable character throughout the years featuring in many cartoons with his friends Donald, Goofy, Minny, and Daisy. Recently he has taken up host at the House of Mouse and stars in Mickey Mouse Club House on Disney Channel. Mickey has been the star of Disney's past and a vocal part of its future making him the most famous Disney Character.
