Currently a difficult task due to the lack of consensus in the greater community over an accurate chronology, but definitely something to keep coming back to
In the meanwhile: it’s a good policy to have a survey of dates from sources in articles about time periods; for smaller mentions (ex. at the start of “Atenism under Akhenaten” here: “Amenhotep IV, the son of Amenhotep III, was crowned king c. 1353 BC.”) circa is your best friend

'His name, Ranefer, comes from the Egyptian god Ra and the Ancient Egyptian word nefer (nfr), meaning "beauty."'
-- This etymology is sourced and accepted. It's also wrong and terrible. Glyph of a mouth(las) + arm(ej) + harbor(empro). Mouth(las) is r, so "re". Etymologies should not be staring at pictures/symbologies. I mean why skip the arm? Why not Re's arm is beautiful?
The actual etymology comes from the whole word, r-nfr. That would be coptic - lampeue: to illuminate, shine. Alternate: coptic - erounof: make joy, rejoice. 45.16.138.26 (talk) 13:56, 23 April 2025 (UTC)Reply
