No. It was settled by English and the name is from the Ancient Greek "philos" meaning "love" and "adelphos" meaning "brother" (this is where "the city of brotherly love" comes from).

The French word for Philadelphia would be the same as the English word because it is a city that is internationally recognized. The word for Philadelphia in French is Philadelphia. The word for Chicago is Chicago, and the word for Los Angeles is Los Angeles. Most French speaking people of the world would pronounce it a little differently than we do in English, (phonetically fee-la-del-fee-ah, shee-ka-go etc.) but the spelling and context are the same.
There is no Embassy in Philadelphia. Embassies usually are in the capital of a country (in this case Washington D.C.)There maybe could be a consulate in Philadelphia. But considering that Washington D.C. is not far away I doubt it. You can find a map with French consulates and the link to their webpages at http://www.ambafrance-us.org/spip.php?rubrique=2 (bottom)But if you want to contact the French embassy in Washington D.C., the general email is info@ambafrance-us.org.
