Can I create a valid variation of Philip (in this case, Pheelip), like Pheelippos?
I don't speak English so I don't know how the rules or definitions of topics like the English language work. I need to know if I can create a variation of a name with English pronunciation and origin, and I also want this variation not to change the etymology of the original name, "Philippos". I want to create my own variations, not select variations of the name on a page like Wikipedia.
I need to create a unique name. Not simply predictable.
Please read every word, and, is origin defined as a word created and pronounced in a language (within this case, english)?
It does not matter if the name is funny or ridiculous. I'm asking if this action (to create a name variation), and basically this name is correct, or "valid".
From the start, I have a name variation in my mind,. Beautiful... but unique. No one, I mean not a single soul has to know it!
Correctly: "... mind. Beautiful...".
Correctly: "... and basically this name, is...".
Can this variation change the etymology of "Philip"?

Using an unconventional spelling for a name leads to a lifetime of 1) correcting people who spell the name the conventional way, and 2) laughter/ridicule.
Examples:
A student who spelled his name "Antione" complained about his name constantly being spelled "incorrectly", and about others calling him "ANT-ee-ohn." I pointed out that the name "Antoine" was well-established LONG before he was named "Antione."
My brother went through school with a boy whose name was spelled "Jereme." Every new teacher and every substitute understandably called him "Jereem," causing him years of embarrassment and annoyance just because his parents wanted to be "cute" with the spelling of "Jeremy." The poor kid couldn't wait till he turned eighteen, when he made his middle name his legal name.

You clearly have no idea how comical 'Pheelippos' looks. That 'ee' has me rolling in the aisles.
In law, in many countries, there is no reason at all why you should not use any combination of letters as a name. In some countries there are laws on that matter, so check the law in countries where you might want to use any new-fangled name.
