Labarna, with its variant Tabarna, was a royal title borne by all Hittite kings, with the exception of Suppiluliuma I and Mursili II. As of the mid‐late thirteenth century bce it was written with a special Anatolian hieroglyph on royal seals and in Luwian inscriptions. Its etymology is still under debate. Both Hattic and Luwian origins have been proposed.
