Biography

Potty the Parrot is Patchy the Pirate's pet parrot who acts as the co-host of SpongeBob SquarePants. The name "Potty" is a parody of the popular parrot saying, "Polly wanna cracker." Potty is a crudely designed marionette with strings who is usually obnoxious and annoying toward Patchy. Potty's gender is ambiguous. In the books SpongeBob Airpants: The Lost Episode and Oh, Barnacles!, female pronouns are used for Potty throughout, like "Potty flapped her wings." Potty lays eggs in "Christmas Who?" and "The Sponge Who Could Fly," which only female parrots can do. Potty's name is a play on Polly, a female name. However, Patchy says, "his" when referring to Potty in "Friend or Foe." When asked about Potty's gender in 2017, Vincent Waller said: "It is only a puppet, with no telltale signs of gender." Potty's voice is raspy. The voice was originally provided by the series' creator, Stephen Hillenburg from 2000 to 2004. Paul Tibbitt took over the role from 2007 to 2012. Since the season 10 episode "Feral Friends" in 2017, the character has been voiced by Doug Lawrence.
