The Saint in New Orleans
No, Saint Simon and Saint Peter are two different individuals in Christianity. Saint Peter is also known as Saint Simon Peter, as Peter was his given name and Simon was his original name before he was renamed by Jesus.
There are a number of saints named Simon. However, if you are referring to Simon the Apostle, he was declared a saint by popular acclaim long before the official canonization process was instituted. He was probably already called a saint by the end of the first century.
I can find little information about the topic but, apparently, Simon of Cyrene is considered a saint. There are a number of Catholic and Episcopal churches named for him. Possibly the first 'black' saint.
His first name is Simon, as in Simon Peter. but in the Bible it is Simeon.Roman Catholic AnswerHis name is Simon, Jesus changed his name to Peter which means rock in Greek; in Hebrew that would be Kefa. So his first name was Simon, and Our Blessed Lord changed it to Peter.
Simon was killed first during the celebration, and then Piggy at Castle Rock.
He was stoned to death.
Saint Peter is traditionally considered the first Bishop of Rome and the leader of the early Christian Church. While he is not specifically referred to as a priest in the New Testament, his role and responsibilities within the Church can be seen as similar to that of a priest.

Saint James the Greater was killed by King Herod and the first of the apostles to die. He was martyred in AD44.
Professor Georg Wilhelm Richmann, of Saint Petersburg, Russia, became the first recorded person to be killed while performing electrical experiments when he was struck and killed by a globe of ball lightning in 1753.
Simon was beaten to death when he was mistaken for the 'beast.' Piggy was killed when he was knocked from the causeway by a boulder and the littlun with the mulberry coloured birthmark on his face disappeared after the first fire got out of control, presumably killed by the fire or by smoke. Ralph also stabbed at least two of Jack's hunters with his spear so they may also have been killed or badly injured.
