Hugh Nibley: "Nehi, Nehri (OW), famous Egyptian noblemen"
Hugh Nibley:
Nephi (BM), founder of the Nephite nation. Nehi, Nehri (OW), famous Egyptian noblemen. Nfy was the name of an Egyptian captain. Since BM insists on "ph," Nephi is closer to Nihpi, original name of the god Pa-nepi, which may even have been Nephi.[1]
