It is uncertain whether this is a double proper name or another kind of formation. Alternatives include 'dauther of Tamitiko', 'asti of Tamitko' (title + toponym), 'asti of Tamitko' (teritorrial unit). The two last interpretations seem a little more probable given the obvious resemblance of ⲧⲁⲙⲧ- with the toponym Tamit. Note that described saqiya is in Tamit East. The formant -ⲕⲟ is characteristic of anthroponyms but is apparently also attested in toponyms: Motiko, Moukdakko, Ngokko.
