源自希腊语，意为“石头”。这是新约中塞法这个名字的大多数版本中使用的翻译，在亚拉姆语中意思是“石头”，是耶稣给使徒西蒙的（比较马太福音16:18和约翰福音1:42）。西门彼得是耶稣事奉期间最杰出的使徒，通常被认为是第一位教皇。由于使徒的名声，这个名字在基督教世界很普遍（用各种拼写）。在英国，诺曼底人以古老的法语形式皮尔斯（Piers）引入了这个名字，从15世纪开始逐渐被拼写彼得（Peter）所取代[1]。除了使徒，这个名字的其他圣徒包括11世纪的改革者圣彼得·达米安（Saint-Peter Damian）和13世纪的传教士圣彼得·烈士（Saint-Peter殉道者）。它也由阿拉贡、葡萄牙和俄罗斯的统治者承担，包括俄国沙皇彼得大帝（1672-1725），他在北方战争中打败了瑞典。著名的虚构人物包括比阿特丽克斯·波特儿童读物中的彼得·兔子，以及拒绝在J.M.巴里1904年的戏剧中长大的彼得·潘。
