Well, that's nice and all -- and I'd love baklava with my soda bread -- but your Orthodox link says St. Patrick's feast day is March 17.

Oh, Great! It wasn't bad enough that they were celebrating St. Patrick's Day two weekends in advance--now we've found a way for it to last a whole month!

mini lesson for ya - the orthodox calendar that you are referring to is actually the old orthodox calendar...to keep it simple, they follow the julian calendar, while the rest of us (except some other groups) follow the gregorian calendar.
And i repeat, there is no St Patrick in the orthodox calendar but you are right that it is March 17 per the julian calendar (that dude you circled is St Theodore)...so to clarify, you are referring to the julian calendar in your calculation (or the old orthodox calender
