As far as I understand, you have in the papers a different last name as your father.
This is perfectly normal and allowed.
Which Chief Financial Officer (CFO) would have a problem with this and why?

If there is a problem with your father's paperwork, he should probably solve it with the relevant authorities.
For dealing with Philippino authorities, please ask on the Philippines forum, not here (Germany).
For a German visa, foreign naming conventions do not matter, as long as the papers are complete and consistent.
