Patrick Star is the best friend of SpongeBob SquarePants in the cartoon. Patrick is a sea star and Spongebob is a sponge. They are 2 separate characters.
Spongebob was originally actually going to be called Spongeboy. However they couldn't go ahead with the name because it was already copyrighted by a company that makes mops, as one of their mops are called "Spongeboy". The creators still felt that the name had to have "sponge" in it, so people didn't mistake him for cheese. So the creators simply changed the last letter of his name. From Boy to Bob. It is not known whether his name is actually "Bob" or not, the creators just thought it sounded catchy (plus, sponge naturally bobs in water).
SpongeBob SquarePants was first on the air in May of 1999. Stephen Hillenberg started work on it in 1989 as a comic book. He was going to name the character SpongeBoy, but someone had already taken that name.
