Phillip
Classic male given
Phillip is a variant spelling of Philip, a male given name of Greek origin meaning "lover of horses." Both spellings remain in common use, though Philip is more traditional.
The name has been borne by numerous historical figures, including kings of Spain, France, and Macedonia—most notably Philip II, father of Alexander the Great.
