This katakana spelling is shared by Academy Award-winning actor Philip Seymour Hoffman (フィリップ・シーモア・ホフマン), football player Philip Rivers (フィリップ・リバース), and composer Philip Glass (フィリップ・グラス). It's also the katakana spelling for Eldest child of Alexander Hamilton and Elizabeth Schuyler Philip Hamilton (フィリップ・ハミルトン).

Modern katakana was extended to write foreign words and names more faithfully. Philip pronounced fi-liP in katakana is フィリップ read firippu. On the other hand, hiragana adheres to traditional Japanese spellings. Philip in hiragana is ひりっぷ read hirippu.
