Phillips, or Phillips head, refers to the shape of the screwdriver's tip. It forms an X or a cross at the tip, instead of being straight as in a flat head.

To tighten a stripped Phillips head screw, you will need a screwdriver with a slightly larger size than the stripped screw, such as a Phillips head screwdriver with a size one step up.
Phillips head screwdrivers only work on Phillips head screws--which are ones with an "x" indentation on the head of the screw. A straight screwdriver works on screws with a single line indentation on the head of the screw.
That crosspoint, with side fillets, was designed by the Phillips company, the company of Henry F. Phillips, the founder. The screw head is named after them. Phillips found this shape of drive head provides an easy method of aligning/centralizing a screw onto a driver bit on production lines. It was also an early attempt at security. A link is provided to the Wikipedia article on Mr. Phillips, and a picture of the head of the fastener that bears his name can be seen there.
A Phillips-head screwdriver is a tool designed to loosen or tighten cross head screws. It gets its name from engineer, Henry F. Phillips.
