We have a DS already called Matthew. Due in 5 weeks and I really like the name Peter....what do people think? Is it boring? My husband likes William but not sure of this as a first name, might call DS2 Peter William as a compromise!
Interested in your thoughts

It's a good strong name. My brother is called Peter and he has a very high-flying (literally) job and the name suits him. I think it makes the transition from baby to child to adult very well.

If you don't like Pete, I wouldn't worry, my Dad is Peter and nobody EVER calls his Pete! My DS has it as a middle name....

I think its a great name

It seems to be having a come back on American TV shows, Fringe, Warehouse 13 and a couple of others that have escaped my memory for the moment.

I like it.

DS2 is Peter (and often shortened to Pete). It is also my Dad's name! Another for Peter here then! MPD

I really like it, wasn't allowed due to bad associations!
