The naming custom in the Philippines was earlier greatly influenced by the Spanish. This influence was because that Spanish had a colonial rule for about 400 years. For centuries, people living in the islands followed the same custom but then with the development and growth of western and American culture in the Philippines, the trend of naming customs showed a paradigm shift from Spanish to English names.
