Pierrick

Pierrick is a Breton diminutive form of Pierre, the French adaptation of the Latin Petrus, itself derived from the Greek Petros meaning rock or stone. The name ultimately traces back to the Aramaic Cephas, a title given by Jesus to the apostle Simon, making Saint Peter one of the most influential bearers of this name family. Pierrick is used predominantly in Brittany and western France, reflecting the regional tradition of adapting French names into distinctly Breton diminutive forms. Related names include Pierre, Perig, and the widely used international cognate Peter.
