Phillip is also a good, classic name Reply Samantha Oct 9 at 4:42 pm He is named after my daddy. Reply Tameika Mar 17 at 3:42 pm I chose the name Phillip in honor of my father who passed away on my birthday almost 5 years ago. My father passed away 2 weeks after my wedding so thankfully he was able to escort me down the aisle but unfortunately he didn’t make it to see me have my children which is painful to think about but I know that he is smiling down from heaven at my two beautiful kids? Reply Missy Williams Aug 16 at 10:24 am We chose the name Phillip Thomas to honor both of our fathers, who are deceased. There are more than 20 boys in my family with the first name Thomas, so I love that itis his middle name.
