Archipelago de San Lazaro was the name given to the Philippines by the Spanish explorer Ruy López de Villalobos in 1543. The name was later changed to Las Islas Filipinas in honor of King Philip II of Spain.
It was Magellan who named it in reference to the day he arrived there --- March 16, 1521, which happened to be the Sabbath of St. Lazarus of Bethany. The day when Jesus raised Lazarus from the dead prior Palm Sunday.
