Peter was son of Jona (or John) (Matt. 16:17), and his mother's name was never mentioned in the bible. His brother was [[Andrew]], another of Jesus' twelve disciples. Peter's name used to be Simon (or Simeon) but one day Andrew brought Peter to Jesus (John 1:41) and there Jesus appointed him his new name. "Thou shalt be called Cephas," an Aramaic surname whose Greek synonym is Petros, or Peter, meaning "a rock" or "stone." (John 1:42)
