Miscellaneous information about Filippa Hamilton.
the story behind her name
- She was born Filippa Kristana Palmstierna in Paris, Dec, 1985.
- In 1999, her father Michael won a court case establishing that he is the son of Ulph Hamilton, a Swedish aristocrat. The family then started hyphenating their last name: Hamilton-Palmstierna.
- For the first several years of her career, her modeling agencies list her as "Filippa Hamilton-Palmstierna" and she has sometimes been credited that way in publications. She has also been listed as "Filippa Palmstiera", "Filippa Palmstierna Hamilton", "Filippa" or even "Philippa". However, she is most commonly credited as "Filippa Hamilton", and so we have chosen to use that variant as part of this website's name.
- More recently, her primary agency, Next, has listed her as "Filippa Hamilton".
- Since her marriage to Miky Picon (June, 2016), she sometimes calls herself "Filippa Hamilton Picon", though she still uses "Filippa Hamilton" professionally.
