Ah! Finally the question I desired in all of my concern!
Starting practically, the word 'philo' itself means 'in love with' and 'sophy' holds itself in 'knowledge'.
Having finished the practical work, lets move on to the philosophy...
A true philosopher keeps it to his mind the truth of existence and the so called 'wisdom' which is actually relative to the perspectives of others.
What one labels as 'wisdom' is in reality just a fabrication over the pondering of those who think to a great extent. A philosopher is never correct, for the term itself is relative in nature, yet is always complex. The outcome of his pondering results in a concept, so compex, that one cannot differ it from its fundaments in any what matter.
Even the simplest conclusions will bear themself in contradiction, if from a philosopher's mouth. Such non-understandable terms are often termed as the 'wisdom' or 'intelligence' as they call it.
What the poor people do, is just, that they shun themselves of the influence of the society, and then start to perceive things without any exterior perceptions. Such a foresight in solitude, away from the muddled point-of-views helps them to think in a neutral environment and then come to conclusions that are 100% pure in their state.
Such cunclusions when subjected to 'perspectives' lead to a might combat of debatual personalities that rumage over the concept for months at end, only to end the battle at a draw. *lol*
Such undecided, debatable terminologies are referred to 'wisdom'. BAH!
This sphere of fabrications enables one to allow the thriving of 'logic' and 'knowledge'. Thus the blame of 'wisdom'.

Philosophers are all people in general. If you take time to think things through and on a general basis for mankind, then it shows you care and are open to ideas. In that aspect, you could call them lovers of wisdom. Philosophers are not so called until they are published and documented and that title comes from their piers.

Good Q.
I suspect it's wrong thinking however, generally speaking.
Dogs can be philosophers, and we have no way to prove they "think" or are "Wise" or "Lovers" in any strict sense.
Philosophy also doesn't strictly take Love of Wisdom to be considered, shared, or believed.

I don't know they are so called.
May be because their great thinking ability produces wisdom - so the relationship is somewhat like parent and child?

Because they hold it of value above all else. For them, it is 'the one', 'the only', 'the biggest love' 'their first love' and 'their last love' against which all else is measured.

Because they are finding love and happy but is only conditional. If their couple is died, will be another disaster.
