Love Peter, like Joshua. Peter is stronger. Would Leo work with the last name?

I agree with the "different vibe" person above, though. So I guess it would depend on your preferred vibe
OP here.
I have no vibe. We are a pretty generic, white family. I’d like for the name to be “strong” and last from childhood to adulthood, and not make a statement.
Neither Peter or Joshua are strong names

the song: there's a sketer on my peter get it off, get it off.....
It's "whack" not "get"
I have only seen this rhyme on this site.

Huh. All the Joshuas I know are fundie Christian.

The deciing factor for me would be middle and last names, and possibly embarrassing initials.
What’s a “home run” name in your book?

Josh- fun loving kayaking bro who majored in Econ and is working as ski instructor while trying to decide to whether to go to law school
Peter - serious classics major who plays the oboe and interns at a think tank
I like both names, very different vibe

Every Joshua I have known has been Christian.
