Names in Pharaonic Egypt were generally of five basic types, none mutually exclusive: theomorphic (linking the individual to a deity); basilopherous (linking the individual to a king); one commenting on the physical or mental qualities, or the background, of the individual; names of foreign origin; and pet‐forms of these.
