Wow, loads of replies! Smile

I already went for it; Peter is 2mo now Grin, but I just wondered what people thought, no-one says what they REALLY think after you actually named the child!

Bella, I'd pronounce Pieter the same as Peter, and I think most would do the same. Perhaps some might think it was Pie -ter, as in apple pie?! But they'd be the minority I reckon

Lovely name, my grandfather was Peter. He was the kindest, most caring man you could hope to meet. A true gentleman.

DS1 has it as his middle name Smile

Ahhh lovely!

terrier I'm Lucy Elizabeth and my brother is Peter! Glad these names are coming back. I'm 37.

Love it! I may be biased by the rather gorgeous ozzy guy I had a fling with on my travels who was one of the best people you could wish to meet

NO!, I definately don't like it (no offense to anyone with a Peter) but it's too old. Also it reminds me of tragic little baby Peter Connelly Sad (who if I could have I would have adopted and re-named-Brandon) Smile

peter gabriel, peter purvis Grin, peter perrett, peter fonda, peter sellers

it's a cool name

I love it! If we ever have a DS it will be the middle name, after DH's grandpa who is the loveliest man Smile

Lovely.

Lovely name.

I have a Peter and I really like it (obviously). I also like the fact that he's the only one in the school but it's still a "normal" name. I dislike "Pete" though. He suited it as a baby and he's 7 now.

It's DH's middle name. It's nice, if a bit Enid Blyton.

Love it
