Mick

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Mick is a masculine given name, usually a short form (hypocorism) of Michael. Because of its popularity in Ireland, it is often used in England as a derogatory term for an Irish person or a person of Irish descent. In Australia the meaning broadened to include any Roman Catholic.
