Peter was one of the 12 disciples of Jesus. Full name is Simon Peter, son of Jona. Catholics thinks highly of Peter. They consider him a saint, thus St. Peter or Saint Peter. As many of you probably notice, there are a lots of catholic churches and private schools named after St. Peter. Peter, the fisherman, was the one who denied Jesus 3 times according to the Bible (Luke 22:54-62)
But according to the 3 verses above, Jesus called him Satan.
Here's something more interesting, he commanded his disciples not to tell anyone that he was Jesus Christ. (Matthew 16:20)
"20 Then charged he his disciples that they should tell no man that he was Jesus the Christ." - Matthew 16:20 KJV
