Patrick's name at birth was Maewyn Succat...his name is Patrick. His birthday is not known but it was believed to be around 387 AD.St. Patrick's name at birth was Maewyn Sucatt. It was changed to Patricius by Pope Celestine just before he sent him back to Ireland as a bishop.
His given name was Maewyn Succat, which means 'War-like.' When he was ordained Pope Celestine I did not think that a suitable name for a priest and bishop so change his name to Patricius, or Patrick in English.
Sorry, but no. Maewyn Succat (Saint Patrick's real name,) died about 1200 years before America was discovered.
St Patrick (Padraig) was certainly called by his real name. Unfortunately, that name has been lost to history. Patrick is a nickname, from the Latin "Patricius" (patrician or nobleman). That could have been from his high regard by the people who nicknamed him, from their inability to pronounce his real name; or out of irony in that he had once been a slave in Ireland, escaped, and returned later to bring the Gospel, literacy, and abolition of slavery.
