What country did the name Peter originate from?

Origin of the Name PeterGreek Usage of the Name PeterEnglish, German, Dutch, Swedish, Norwegian, Danish, Slovak, Slovenian, Biblical Meaning of the Name PeterThe name Peter is derived from the Greek word "petros" meaning "stone, rock". The name is most commonly associated with St. Peter, one of Jesus' twelve apostles. He was originally Simon son of Jona (or Jonah), a fisherman from Galilee. Peter lent Jesus the use of his boat from which Jesus would give sermons. Since he was one of two Simons among the apostles, Jesus renamed him Cephas(Aramaic for "stone") to designate him as a leader, the rock on which he would build his church. Cephas was translated to Petros when the New Testament was written in Greek. Simon Cephas is traditionally regarded as the founder of the Christian Church. He is also regarded as the first Pope by the Roman Catholics. The name Peter was first used as a personal name in 13th-century England, and has been in continuous use since then.
