Egypt: The Origin of the Name, Egypt. The Origin of the Word, Egypt. by Nermin Sami and Jimmy Dunn. Over the millenniums, Egypt has had many names in many different languages. Today, its official name is Junhuriyah Misr al-Arabiyah, which in English means the Arab Republic of Egypt.
Today, Egyptians carry names that have Egyptian, Arabic, Turkish, Greek origins (especially Coptic ones) among others. The concept of a surname is lacking in Egypt. Rather, Egyptians tend to carry their father's name as their first middle name, and stop at the 2nd or 3rd first name, which thus becomes one's surname. The Greek name is derived from Late Egyptian Hikuptah  Memphis , a corruption of the earlier Egyptian name Hat-ka-Ptah (á¸¥wt-k3-ptá¸¥), meaning home of the ka (soul) of Ptah, the name of a temple to the god Ptah at Memphis.
