Filip origin meaning history gender

The strong masculine name Filip is derived from the ancient Greek Philippos, conveying the meaning "lover of horses." Historically, Filip is the preferred spelling across much of Central and Eastern Europe, giving it a distinguished, international flair. In the USA, it is a less common variant of Philip, often marking descent from European immigration, though its history is deeply rooted in European royalty and religious tradition. The name projects a mood that is reliable and classically sophisticated, avoiding modern trends. It is universally recognized as a traditional male identifier globally.
