This would have lead to him never having heard Presley's party invitation, which was how he had met her. Her surprise party had also lead to him meeting an old friend he hadn't seen in years. It seemed that in such a short while, Presley had done so much for Philip, and try as he might, he just couldn't figure out a way he could possibly repay her.
It completely melted Philip's heart when Presley introduced him to Luna as 'One of her very best friends'. He beamed unconsciously at the thought that there existed a person that would actually be this kind to him. It might not have seemed like a lot, simply calling Philip one of her very best friends, but it meant the world to him.
He shook his head when Presley spoke, as if he had drifted off into thought.
''Oh, Yes, That- That's my name, Philip Victor LaCroix, just like both my brothers!'' He confirmed Presley's accurate guess, also accidentally revealing the - in his mind - painful fact that he and his brothers all had the same exact name.

''Nice to meet you i'm Luna obviously'' she said to Phillip Oh damn I forgot his second name i'm rubbish at remembering names, She wondered what they were talking about but then again it was none of her buissness but Luna was always a curious girl
"Philip is going to teach here after he graduates next term," Presley told Luna matter-of-factly. There wasn't any doubt in her mind that he would. She turned back to Philip as he confirmed that--incredibly--her guess on his name had been spot-on. But the last part of his sentence sent her active brain into overdrive.
All three of you are Philip LaCroix?" she asked incredulously. Presley was just kidding, making fun of the mess-up in his sentence, the misplaced modifier of sorts. Of course he meant that both of his brothers had the same last name as him, but it was funny all the same.
