Dated or due a comeback?

Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

I've got a teenage one.. .... knew of one other boy at Primary called Peter also. Have no regrets and he's happy with it, everyone can pronounce it. He does have a very different non- English middle name from my side of family as a back up plan if he ever tires of it and wants to reinvent himself...

I know loads, my dad (late 80s) two BILs(60s) and my boss (early 40s) oh, and my first love 😉

DC2 would have been Peter.

Love it

I do think it's a little dated as there were so many peters at school with me in the 90s

I like it. My cousin named her DS Peter after her DH's husband's father. (12 years ago). Everyone was a little because it was the age of Joshuas and Finns and Olivers and so on. My cousin said that nobody in the school (except for teachers) were called Peters. The name has hugely grown on me. Babies are very cute as Peter. Toddlers are adorable as Peter. Little boys are adorable as Peter.

I love it. For me, it's in the same category as solid sensible names like David and Simon.
