Where the Peterson name comes from

Peterson is son of Peter, and Peter is the Greek petros, a rock or a stone, which the apostle carried into every Christian country in Europe. The surname is Scandinavian and English at once, common across Sweden, Denmark, Germany, the Netherlands and Britain, and it is reckoned to have around 700 variant spellings. Many American Petersons were a Danish Pedersen or Petersen first and changed the spelling after they arrived. The same relationship turns up as Piotrowicz in Polish and Petric or Petrovic in Slovene and Serbo-Croatian.
