Felipe Neri is a compound or composite name that I've encountered frequently on my IGI searches. I believe as some of you have explained that it goes after the saint Felipe de Neri. However, Neri by itself is also a surname, like Rodolfo Neri Vela, the first mexican astronaut.

-In the Catholic Church there is a St. Philip Neri (yes, he was Italian - I don't know anything more).
