Magus doesn’t translate as “Peter.” Sure your name isn’t Brown? Adios!

But "Peter" does translate into "Pater" meaning "Father" and Simon Magus, as Irenaeus notes, is the Father [Pater] of all Gnosticism. Vaya con Dios --

“Peter”also refers to the male organ, at least in vulgar English. I can imagine what some fantasist could make of that. Goodbye.

Huh? "Peter" in Latin is "Petrus". You can see that for yourself if you go to St. Peter's and look up at the frieze around the base of the dome, which has "You are Peter and upon this rock I will build my church" in both Greek and Latin.
