I was raised Catholic in the Catholic Church ST PETER is the patron saint of fishermen. Peter I am sure we all know means stone. As a child I came up with variants of the name Pedro for my dolls, all my babies had the name Peter, which is funny in that I had no relatives by said name and I was not allowed to watch much TV so it was not influenced by Fred Flintstone who in dubbed Spanish cartoons was PEDRO PICAPIEDRA ( Peter the stone crusher) .
