Comments for the name Philippe

Comments for PHILIPPE:

I know a boy named Philippe and he pronounces his name like "Phillip". He is also German, not French. I'm not sure if France is the only type of origin for this name.

I think that the French way to spell Phillip is a little annoying and it seems like the parents are trying too hard. And if you are going to have your name spelled "Philippe" PLEASE pronounce it the correct way!

This name always makes me think of a horse in a Disney movie. I think it's the name of Belle's horse in Beauty and the Beast, but I'm not sure.
