Paddy 帕迪（对爱尔兰人的蔑称）

来自爱尔兰常用名Patrick昵称。

paddy 稻田，水田

缩写自paddy field,来自马来语padi,稻谷，未加工过的水稻。

paddy (n.1): "rice field," 1620s, "rice plant," from Malay padi "rice in the straw." Main modern meaning "ground where rice is growing" (1948) is a shortening of paddy field.
Paddy (n.2): "Irishman," 1780, slang, from the pet form of the common Irish proper name Patrick (Irish Padraig). It was in use in black slang by 1946 for any "white person." Paddy wagon is 1930, perhaps so called because many police officers were Irish. Paddywhack (1881) originally meant "an Irishman."
