Mickey Mouse is the most popular character of Walt Disney's animated cartoons and arguably the most popular cartoon star in the world. Mickey is often presented as a cheerful and mischievous anthropomorphic rodent.

"Mortimer Mouse" had been Disney's original name for the character before his wife, Lillian, convinced him to change it, and ultimately Mickey Mouse came to be.
