Petr Meaning, Gender, and Mood
Petr is the strong, traditional Slavic form of a name derived from the ancient Greek word meaning "rock" or "stone," implying steadfastness and stability. It is classified globally as an unequivocally masculine given name, maintaining this identity across all cultures. In the USA, Petr serves as a distinguishing European variant, typically encountered through Central and Eastern European immigrant communities. The name projects a robust, classic, and intellectually sophisticated mood. Historically, this spelling highlights a deep connection to Slavic linguistic heritage, contrasting with the more common English version.
