Peder is a male given name that is popular in Scandinavian countries. It is spelled using the same letters as the English name "Peter," but its pronunciation is quite different. The proper IPA phonetic transcription for Peder is /ˈpeːdər/, which shows that the first syllable is pronounced with a long "e" sound and the second syllable has a neutral vowel sound. Additionally, the "d" in Peder is pronounced differently than in English, being pronounced with the tongue against the upper teeth rather than between the teeth.
