There is a dispute regarding his name: since the "Hathor" sign (C9 in Gardiner's sign list) is partially damaged, some authors such as Edward Brovarski believe that the real name of this pharaoh could be Meryibre ("Beloved of the heart of Ra") which is somewhat closer to the Memphite tradition.
Terdapat perselisihan mengenai namanya: karena tanda "Hathor" (C9 di dalam daftar tanda tangan Gardiner) sebagian rusak, beberapa penulis seperti Edward Brovarski yakin bahwa nama sesungguhnya dari firaun ini adalah Meryibre ("Kekasih hati Ra") yang agak mirip dengan tradisi Memphite.
