PETER
Usage: English, German, Scandinavian, Slovene, Biblical
Pronounced: PEE-tur
Derived from Greek petros meaning "stone".This name was also borne by Peter the Great, the czar of Russia who defeated Sweden in the Great Northern War in the 18th century.

Wow! I guess the definition isn't exactly the same, word wise, but a stone is a small rock, so it works for me!
