What Does the Name Fellipe Mean?
Fellipe is a Portuguese variant of Filipe, the Portuguese form of Philip, and its established meaning is "lover of horses," from the Greek name Philippos. Philippos combines philos, meaning "loving" or "dear," with hippos, "horse"; the compound is literally "horse-loving" or "fond of horses." The spelling Fellipe does not create a separate etymology: its double l is an orthographic variant of the Portuguese form.
Fellipe Name History & Origins
The root name is ancient Greek Philippos, borne by several Macedonian rulers, including Philip II, father of Alexander the Great. Greek Philippos passed into Latin as Philippus. In Christian Europe the name was reinforced by Saint Philip the Apostle and Saint Philip the Deacon, and it developed into forms such as French Philippe, Spanish Felipe, and Portuguese Filipe.
Fellipe belongs to the Portuguese branch. It is an alternative spelling of Filipe; the doubled l reflects Portuguese orthographic variation rather than a different origin. The form occurs in Portuguese-speaking countries, including Brazil, alongside the more standard Filipe.
