I much prefer this spelling to "Philip". It looks more complete with the two L's.

This name remains the same in contemporary Greek. It derives from the Greek words: ΦΙΛΟΣ-ΙΠΠΟΣ =friend of horse. Consequently the correct spelling is single l and double p.

Phillip Gallagher is one of the main characters in both the US and UK versions of the television series Shameless. He goes by Lip, which I think is an interesting alternative to Phil.
