Egyptian, meaning uncertain

Nefertem Origin and Meaning

The name Nefertem is a boy's name .

This alluring mythological name belonged to the Ancient Egyptian god representing the first sunlight, and the smell of the Egyptian blue lotus flower. He was known for his youthful beauty. While the etymology of his name is uncertain, some theorize that it may mean "beautiful one who closes, he who is beautiful, he who is beautifully complete". Nefertem sounds just as beautiful as the similar Nefertiti, but feels like a more approachable choice for a modern baby name.
