peter

Slowly die down

Peter is slang for penis, somewhat dated but still encountered.

The verb peter out means to gradually diminish and stop: The trail petered out after a mile; Enthusiasm petered out as the project dragged on.

These two uses appear unrelated—the verb likely derives from mining terminology for exhausted veins. (Capitalized Peter is a given name.)
