Etymology of FilipponeWhat does the name Filippone mean? The Italian surname Filippone is a patronymic name created from the first name of a male ancestor.

This name is composed of the element "philos" which means "friend," and "hippos," meaning "horse." Thus the surname literally means "son of one who is a lover of horses." This name became common throughout Europe due to several saints and monarchs who bore the name.
