Answer: It's above every name
Paul goes on in the next verse to say that this name is so powerful that people (the verse specifically used the words "every tongue") are going to confess that the name of Jesus is Lord one day. Paul does not say when this will happen as far as a specific date and time, he just says it will one day happen. Millenialist Christians believe this will happen during the Thousand Year Reign of Christ after the Tribulation period.

Answer: Christ's
"Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus, who, being in the form of God, did not consider it robbery to be equal with God, but made Himself of no reputation, taking the form of a bondservant, and coming in the likeness of men. And being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself and became obedient to the point of death, even the death of the cross" (Philippians 2:5-8).
Paul taught that Jesus completely emptied himself of any rights that were his as God's son and made himself nothing so that he could serve by securing humanity's salvation. Because of his humble obedience his heavenly father exalted him.
"Therefore God also has highly exalted Him and given Him the name which is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in heaven, and of those on earth, and of those under the earth, and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father" (Philippians 2:9-11).

Answer: Excellence
This verse implies that diligent application of faith is a source of excellent morals. A recurring theme in the New Testament is that focusing on spiritual issues results in behavioral excellence. Contra wise, concentrating on behavior directly, especially in the sense of trying to follow arbitrary rules, generally results in spiritual failure.

Answer: The Philippians wouldn't be intimidated by their enemies.
"But whatever happens to me, you must live in a manner worthy of the Good News about Christ, as citizens of heaven. Then, whether I come and see you again or only hear about you, I will know that you are standing side by side, fighting together for the Good News. Don't be intimidated by your enemies.

From Quiz: Paul's Letter to the Philippians
Answer: Be like-minded
"If you have any encouragement from being united with Christ, if any comfort from his love, if any fellowship with the Spirit, if any tenderness and compassion, then make my joy complete by being like-minded, having the same love, being one in spirit and purpose" (Philippians 2:1-2).
Many of Paul's letters were intended to teach or to correct error in the churches in which he had responsibility. The Letter to the Philippians was very personal and was meant to encourage the recipients and to express his gratitude for the help they were always willing to give him. The things he most encouraged in this letter were unity and joy.

Answer: Christ Jesus
That attitude is to be one of ultimate humility. If Christ Jesus could be humble (and He was) despite His identity as the Son of God, the Philippians could certainly adopt that same attitude and approach to others around them.
