About names in the Philippines

Filipino naming culture reflects the country's layered colonial history, blending Spanish-style given names from centuries of Spanish rule with American influence from the twentieth-century US administration period, plus names drawn from the many indigenous Filipino languages spoken across the archipelago's thousands of islands. It's also very common for a Filipino child to grow up known primarily by one or more nicknames quite different from their official, legally registered given name.

A child registered as "Maria Cristina" might be called "Tin-tin" or "Cris" by everyone in daily life, with the formal name reserved almost entirely for official documents.
