grc-adecl

φῐλώτερος, φῐλίων, φίλτερος

φῐλώτᾰτος, φίλτᾰτος

Latin: -phila

From Proto-Hellenic *pʰílos, traditionally derived from from Proto-Indo-European *bʰil-o-s, from *bʰil- (“decent, good, harmonious, friendly”). In this case, cognate with Old Irish bil (“good, mild”) and Proto-Germanic *biliz (“kind, gentle; decent, fair”), whence Old English bile- (“kind, suitable, appropriate”, prefix), German billig (“appropriate, fitting, inexpensive, cheap”), and Dutch billijk (“appropriate”).
However, Beekes rejects the above etymology based on the original meaning of the Greek word apparently being "own, accompanying" rather than "beloved", and leaves the origin open.

...οὕτω τὸν ἀπὸ σώματος καὶ ὥρας ὀξὺν ἔρωτα τῶν νεογάμων ἀναφλεγόμενον δεῖ μὴ διαρκῆ μηδὲ βέβαιον νομίζειν, ἂν μὴ περὶ τὸ ἦθος ἰδρυθεὶς καὶ τοῦ φρονοῦντος ἁψάμενος ἔμψυχον λάβῃ διάθεσιν.
(trans. Babbitt) "...so the keen love between newly married people that blazes up fiercely as the result of physical attractiveness must not be regarded as enduring or constant, unless, by being centred about character and by gaining a hold upon the rational faculties, it attains a state of vitality."

46 CE – 120 CE, Plutarch, Coniugalia praecepta §138f

...hoútō tòn apò sṓmatos kaì hṓras oxùn érōta tôn neogámōn anaphlegómenon deî mḕ diarkê mēdè bébaion nomízein, àn mḕ perì tò êthos idrutheìs kaì toû phronoûntos hapsámenos émpsukhon lábēi diáthesin.

Uhlenbeck and others consider it cognate with Sanskrit रमते (rámate, “to calm down; to enjoy; to have sex with”), Lithuanian rimti (“calm down”), Gothic 𐍂𐌹𐌼𐌹𐍃 (rimis, “tranquility”), which all come from Proto-Indo-European *h₁rém-e-ti with *h₁rem- (“to rest”). Beekes simply states “No etymology” and tentatively suggests a Pre-Greek origin.
The original stem is ἐρᾰσ- (erăs-), as shown by ἐραστός (erastós), ἐραννός (erannós), ἐράσμιος (erásmios, “lovely”) and ἐραστής (erastḗs, “lover”).
