I guess Willie, as in Steamboat Willie.
No, that was the name of his film. Steamboat Willy was the first animated sound cartoon screened at a theater. His planned name was Mortimer.
And the answer is…Walt Disney originally planned to name his mouse Mortimer until his wife objected and suggested Mickey instead.
Mortimer Mouse
