In the E! True Hollywood Story episode on the series, Donald Bellisario reveals that the character of Rick was designed to be a faithful impression of Humphrey Bogart's character of the same name from Casablanca. This is further evidenced in the restaurant owned and operated by Rick in the pilot (Rick's Cafe Americaine).
