Names from Demotic Egyptian Sources
Names from Demotic Egyptian Sources 2nd Edition by Daniel L Lind (Sneferu sa Djedi mewetif Merit) Introduction Registration of ancient Egyptian names is a relatively new thing in the SCA. As of July 2015 names recorded in either demotic script or Coptic became registerable with the SCA College of Arms. The full decision on the subject can be read at the following link: http://heraldry.sca.org/loar/2015/07/15-07lar.html#57 This article only attempts to address names and name patterns recorded in demotic script. Names and name patterns recorded in Coptic are found elsewhere. Names and name patterns found in the first edition of this article were taken from the book Oriental Institute Hawara Papyri Demotic and Greek Texts from an Egyptian Family Archive in the Fayum (Fourth to Third Century BC) by George R Hughes and Richard Jasnow with a contribution by James G. Keenan. This second edition adds names from the Catalog of the Demotic Texts in the Brooklyn Museum by George R Hughes. This edition adds two hundred and eighty three additional names for a total of three hundred and seventy five along with sections on unisex names. There are also corrections to several translation errors found in the previous edition. The data on frequency of names has been expanded to include citations in hieroglyphs, hieratic, Greek, Coptic, and Latin. This intended to more accurately show the popularity of the various names in their period context . Data for this change comes from the Trismegistos database. A few names included herein are taken directly from Trismegistos without reference to the aforementioned books. These have been included at the request of specific heraldic clients. In the following sections there will be two spellings for each item. The Demotic Spellings are transcriptions that were done from the original records by the authors listed above. The Phonetic Spellings are my best guess at how these names would be pronounced by an English/American reader. In creating these guesses I used the traditional transliteration scheme developed by Sir Alan Gardiner in 1957. Most modern vowels don’t exist in the demotic alphabet. That’s where most of the guesswork comes in. Fortunately ancient Egypt was a multilingual society so names could be written in several scripts; including Greek. I was able to use the Greek spelling of many of these names (found in Trismegistos) to define the needed vowels. 1 Contents Whole Name Patterns - pg 3 1.

These give a structure into which the given names can be inserted. Each of the following patterns uses words within angle brackets such as <self>, <father>, <mother>, etc. to indicate that a given name should be inserted in the pattern. The word within the angle brackets indicates the relationship to the owner of the whole name. Combined Pair of Patronymic and Matronymic Bynames Patronymic bynames define the owner of the name as the daughter/son of a specific father. These are quite common in various cultures. Modernly many patronymic bynames have been adopted as surnames and passed on from one generation to another. Examples of patronymic bynames include Erikson, Williams, MacDonald, etc. Matronymic bynames define the owner of the name as the daughter/son of a specific mother. These are less common in modern society, but were used in many ancient and medieval cultures. In ancient Egypt the formal name pattern included the person’s name and the name of both parents. This pattern was used by primary parties in legal documents. Since SCA award scrolls imitate the legal documents from period I consider it the most appropriate pattern for registration and thus have listed it first. As of this writing, this is the only pattern that has been registered with the SCA College of Arms. There are both female and male forms of this pattern. Phonetic Spelling Demotic Spelling Translation Date Range <self> sat ne <father> mewetis <mother> <self> s3.t n <father> mw.t⸗s <mother> <self> daughter of <father> whose mother is <mother> Dec 22, 365 BC - Sept 14, 232 BC <self> sa <father> mewetif <mother> <self> s3 <father> mw.t⸗f <mother> <self> son of <father> whose mother is <mother> Dec 22, 365 BC - Mar 15, 221 BC Single Matronymic Bynames I have found no examples of this in demotic. But I have encountered an example of it in hieroglyphs, so it is a part of the language. A demotic record of the pattern may exist somewhere, though it may not be necessary. It is possible we could register such a pattern using the terms from the pattern above. Single Patronymic Bynames These occur for both genders. Phonetic Spelling Demotic Spelling Translation Date Range <self> sat ne <father> <self> s3.t n <father> <self> daughter of <father> Aug 23, 259 BC - Aug 18, 243 BC <self> sa <father> <self> s3 <father> <self> son of <father> Dec 22, 365 BC - Mar 15, 221 BC 3 Whole Name Patterns (continued) Compound Matronymic Bynames I have found no examples of this pattern. Compound Patronymic Bynames I have only found examples of this pattern in use by men. Phonetic Spelling Demotic Spelling Translation Date Range <self> sa <father> sa <grandfather> <self> s3 <father> s3 <grandfather> <self> son of <father> son of <grandfather> Dec 22, 365 BC-Nov 8, 331 BC <self> sa <father> sa <grandfather> sa <great-grandfather> <self> s3 <father s3 <grandfather> s3 <great-grandfather> <self> son of <father> son of <grandfather> son of <greatgrandfather> Dec 22, 365 BC-Jan 20, 364 BC Chronological Bynames These patterns seem to occur only when two full siblings have identical given names. Half siblings would not usually have identical parental names. So they could use a combined patronymic/matronymic sets of bynames to differentiate between them. Phonetic Spelling Demotic Spelling Translation Date Range <self> sa <father> pa a’a <self> sa <father> p3 ʿ3 <self> son of <father> the elder Mar 4, 292 BC - Apr 2, 292 BC <self> pa a’a sa <father> mewetif <mother> <self> p3 ʿ3 s3 <father> mw.t⸗f <mother> <self> the elder son of <father> whose mother is <mother> Aug 16 232 BC - Mar 15, 221 BC <self> pa a’a sa <father> <self> p3 ʿ3 s3 <father> <self> the elder son of <father> Aug 16 232 BC - Mar 15, 221 BC <self> pa khem sa <father> mewetif <mother> <self> p3 m s3 <father> mw.t⸗f <mother> <self> the younger son of <father> whose mother is <mother> Aug 16 232 BC - Sept 14, 232 BC <self> sa <father> pa khem <self> sa <father> p3 m <self> son of <father> the younger Mar 9, 239 BC (2 examples, same papyrus) Occupational bynames Occupational bynames did exist in ancient Egypt, but they seem to occur independent of other name patterns. My best guess is that they function the way titles do in European languages. This is not as strange as it sounds. Our way is not the only way. For example the English practice of combining identity with occupation is not universal. While an American would say “I am a scientist” an Italian would say “I do science.” Egyptian practice when describing Egyptians was to place titles before the name. Titles in this pattern could be stacked similarly to how we stack adjectives. Egyptian practice when describing foreigners (including their Greek rulers) was to place titles after the name. The declarative byname t3 mr-sn “Philadelphos” is an example of this. 4 Whole Name Patterns (continued) Occupational bynames (continued) These title/bynames may be use in combination with any of the other patterns described here. Simply insert the occupational byname before the given name of whichever person it applies to. For example a sculptor whose father was also a sculptor would be called hemsankh <self> sa hemsankh <father>. As of this writing none of these has been registered as part of an Egyptian name by the SCA College of Arms.

The Phonetic Spellings are my best guess at how these names would be pronounced by an English/American reader. Almost all of the translations come from Trismegistos. Most of the following names are Egyptian. Names that are known to not be Egyptian are marked with a number of asterisks indicating their language as follows: *Greek, **Libyan, *** Hebrew. Bear in mind that while Egyptian names should be registerable using the Egyptian name patterns listed above, names from other languages may not be.

Dig through the Trismegistos database. It contains the largest collection of ancient Egyptian names that I am aware of. Egyptologist from around the world are continually adding information to it and to the partner projects that feed into it. It contains 33,876 names as of this writing. Remember that you will need to find records that were recorded in demotic, Coptic, Greek, or Latin. Records written in hieroglyphs or hieratic are currently unusable for SCA name registration at this time. 29 Bibliography Catalog Of The Demotic Texts In The Brooklyn Museum by George R Hughes , with contributions by Brian P.
