Name 200857

Gender
unknown
Structure
unknown
Type
monolingual?
Genealogy
Nubian?
Origin
local?
Etymology
This may be a variant of the name Ionnga (Nam 202509) resulting from the following alternations: ⲓⲟⲛⳟⲓ > ⲓⲟⲛⲅⲓ > ⲉⲓⲟⲅⲅⲓ. Note, however, that the regressive assimilation of ⲛ+ⲅ > ⲅⲅ is not known otherwise. Alternatively, this may be a combinative name consisting of ⲉⲓⲟ-, probably cognate with the Nobiin ⲓⲟ-, 'mother; my mother' + -ⲛ (genitive) + ⲅⲓ-, '(maternal) uncle' = 'uncle of mother; maternal uncle?'

Name 200878

Name
Ioulepa
Gender
female
Structure
simple?
Type
monolingual?
Genealogy
Blemmyan/Beja?
Origin
foreign?
Etymology
Meaning: If this indeed is a Blemmyan name, it should probably be analsed as ⲉⲓⲟⲩ- < ⲓⲟⲩ-, nominative sing. marker + ⲗⲉⲡⲁ, perhaps cognate with the Bedauye 'réba', 'mountain, hill' = 'the mountain'. Othewise, it may be a Nubian name with the following etymology: ⲉⲓⳣ-, ⲉⲓⲟⲩ-, 'grain, wheat' / ⲉⲗ̄ⲗⲉ-, 'wheat' + ⲉⲡ-, 'take, receive, put?' + -ⲁ (predicative) = 'the one who takes grain of wheat'. This, however, seems less likely.
