Origin: Hungarian

Meaning: Pear tree; Of Peter; Rock, stone

Pere is a short and sweet moniker of French, Hungarian, and Greek origin. It'll make for a lovely fit if you want something gender-neutral with plenty of unique meanings. On the one hand, Pere may be related to the surname Le Péré and the French word poirier, meaning "pear tree." On the other, you've got the small village of Pere in Hungary and the Latin name Peter, meaning "rock" or "stone." Like the best bonbons, your Pere will be tough on the outside but sweet at heart!
