Close. But not really.
Petra is the greek word for Rock. As in a foundation stone, implying stablility.
Petros however, refers to pebble. A loose piece of flint.
Have a quotation
The feminine noun πετρα (petra) means rock or rather: mountain of a rock, and is used about 15 times in the Bible. The only derived construct is πετρωδης (petrodes), which consists of our noun petra and ειδος (eidos), meaning appearance (from the verb ειδω,eido, meaning to see). The noun petrodes denotes rocky places, or literally rocky shapes, and it occurs an additional four times (Mark 4:5, Matthew 13:5).
A petra is used to build houses in and on (Matthew 7:24, Luke 6:48) or hew sepulchers in (Matthew 27:51, Mark 15:46). It's also used to metaphorize someone's firmness or strength; the Septuagint uses it in 2 Samuel 22:2 in the familiar phrase "The Lord is my petra and my fortress." Paul refers to the Meribah event in 1 Corinthians 10:4, and compares Christ to the petra from which the waters flowed (Exodus 17:6).
Petra denotes a firm foundation and as such it serves as a metaphor for faith in JesusChrist. The masculine counterpart of petra is πετρος (petros), which denotes a wobbly flint that won't supply any footing and can be tossed away at will.The masculine noun petros could mean rock in Homer's time but in the time of the Bible, it was always used to indicate "a piece or fragment of a rock such as a man might throw," as Zodhiates' Complete Wordstudy Dictionary New Testament explains, "Distinguished from the masculine petros is that petra is a mass of rock while petros is a detached stone or boulder, a stone that might be thrown or easily moved."
In the Bible the word petros does not occur besides the name Peter.
The most remarkable conjunction of these two words petra and petros is in the famous scene of Matthew 16:13-20.
In Matthew 16:18 Jesus asks the disciples what they think of Him. The men rattle off a list of heroes but only Peter submits that Jesus is the Son of the Living God. Jesus responds by saying that he couldn't have obtained that insight from any human teacher, or even have figured it out by himself, but that it was given to him by God.
And then He says to Peter: You are petros (a small wobbly and easily movable stone), but on that petra (the unmovable faith that is not from man but from God) I'm going to build My church.
