Commentary
The queer name *Χωρόφιλος admitted by Robinson, has been registered in Fraser-Matthews, 1987 Fraser, P.M., Matthews, E. (eds.), 1987, Lexicon of Greek Personal Names, I: The Aegean Islands, Cyprus, Cyrenaica, Oxford - see in bibliography . In fact, between omicron and chi there is a slight shift, allowing the proposed abbreviation.
