Origin and meaning
From a Germanic given name consisting of Frankish *filu (“many”, from Proto-Germanic *felu) + *berht (“bright”, from Proto-Germanic *berhtaz). The spelling with Ph instead of F is due to influence of the given name Philippe. Cognates of *berht include English bright and given names containing bert like Robert, Albert, Berthold etc.
