Fülöp: Name day

Name background

Fülöp is the traditional Hungarian masculine form of the name Philip, rooted in the Greek *Philippos*, meaning "lover of horses." Historically, the name carries a strong, traditional European tone, suggesting classical depth and ancient royal lineage. In the USA, Fülöp remains exceptionally rare and is usually viewed as an exotic or distinctly foreign variation of the common English name. The umlauted 'ö' contributes to its sophistication but often leads to mispronunciation or confusion for American speakers. Despite its rarity, the name maintains a strong and elegant mood when encountered domestically.
