Has achondroplasia, a form of dwarfism in which the body is perfectly formed but the bones initially modelled in cartilage, the long bones of the arms and legs, do not grow long enough. Velázquez painted a fine portrait of a man with this condition which hangs in the Prado in Madrid.

Dinklage is considered such a genuinely pleasant and amiable person by his costars on "Game of Thrones", that many of them find it quite difficult to act out scenes with him in which they're mistreating his character Tyrion. He and Lena Headey are such good friends, in fact, they share an apartment whenever they're filming scenes and drive together to the set each day, even though their characters have a mutual hatred of each other. Charles Dance has also expressed disdain for how his character treats Tyrion, stating that he finds it hard to be so mean to a nice man like Dinklage.

Even as a struggling actor, he turned down many roles in fantasy films out of fear of being typecast as a magical dwarf or little person for the rest of his career. Living in expensive New York, he admitted that he would often be so short on money that a dinner consisted of a bag of crisps.

Peter's surname is the same as the town of Dinklage in Lower Saxony, district of Vechta, in the Northwest region of Germany. The name "Dinklage" derives from the Old Norse word "thing", which means a gathering place, such as one for a council or trial. Built as a castle near the end of the Early Middle Ages, it was first officially recorded not before 1231. Over time and due to phonetical changes in the German language, like the cessation of the 'th'-sound, the name changed from "Thinclage" to "Dinclage" and finally to today's common term "Dinklage" (Place of the Thing).
