kemetic names

this is a collection of historically attested theophoric name formulae. N represents the position of a particular Netjer's name within the larger name formula. all hieroglyphic examples place the Netjer's name in front, regardless of its position in pronounciation, because it is the reverential placement. in gendered name formulae, the masculine variants will be printed before the feminine, with commas to separate the two. likewise, ungendered names will be translated with neutral pronouns. a devotional work for Renenutet.
