Just wondering why . . .

Why is someone from the Philippines called a Filipino? Do we call someone from France, Phrench? Is someone from Philadelphia a Filadelfian? A Filadelfino? From Agrippa, an Agripino? An Agripen? Do we visit a pharmacy to see the farmicino? English spelling is impossible to teach.
