Peter

Peter originates from the Greek word 'petros,' meaning stone or rock. In the New Testament, Jesus renamed his disciple Simon to Peter, signifying his role as a foundational pillar of the early church. The name then traveled throughout the Roman Empire and across Europe, becoming a staple in Christian cultures, carried by saints and scholars alike.
