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.
As in modern Egypt, this was both a name for the administrative center of Egypt, what we call Memphis today, as well as the name of the country as a whole. Egypt, as many people of the world refer to the country today, is a derivative of this ancient name.his is probably derived from an ancient term, Mizraim which may have itself been derived from an ancient Egyptian word, md-r mdr, which people in the region called Egypt. Misr is an Arabic name simply meaning country, and part of the tradition of this term in as a name for Egypt comes from the Islamic Quran.
