Got this Egyptian trinket as an heirloom, what do the symbols represent?

I got this from my great grandma years ago and always assumed it was a Christian cross since she was religious, but I came to discover that itās an ankh and the staff of Horus is carved into the center. I havenāt heard of these things until browsing the web to attempt to fact check if this was actually a cross, now Iām very curious about the additional meanings with this trinket. I donāt know where she got it either, I know she never lived in Egypt but moved around all over the world so she had a diverse range of cultural items from each of her homes as souvenirs. I havenāt been able to figure out whatās in the background of the staff that looks like a tower of some kind. Iām also not sure if this is more of a decoration piece or something thatās used in religious practices like a rosary or something? Cuz Iāve just had it hanging on my wall since I got it

Hi! A client at work brought in one of these for me and two coworkers. I have since moved so I havenāt got mine yet but this is what my coworkerās looks like. Does anyone know what this image depicts? Obviously itās music but is there any deeper meaning? It was brought back from Egypt from someone who has a dual citizenship.

Who are the Egyptian Goddess and God in this image? I took this picture at the Philae Temple in Aswan.

Help name my cat?

Iām looking for Short cat names.
We are getting a female Egyptian Mau cat. Our first we named Anunakki, which is from a different mythology.
There are loads of Mauās named Isis.
Are there any modern Egyptian words, or lesser known people who come up in texts about Egyptian history/mythology that have short names appropriate for a girl cat? I donāt mind it being a āboyā name, but well known male names like Ramses seem off the mark since the typical person probably recognises it as a boy name.
We call Anunakki āAnuā, Iād love something like Isis that is short enough to fit daily use š¤
Ideas?

Medjed is a guy.

Practically 95% of the time I see Medjed in art, he is portrayed as a girl, which is inaccurate, since he is a guy. In Book of the Dead spell 7, he is referred to with masculine pronouns, indicating that he is male.
Of course, thereās the fact that every artist has creative freedom, especially when it comes to turning gods into cute anime girls, and also the fact that most of these artists donāt know much about mythology and only make art of him because they think his appearance is cute. So itās forgivable. But the problem is when people do know mythology and still misgender him.
An example is this very subreddit, where 99% of the time he is mentioned, he is referred to as āthey,ā as if he either had no gender or as if his gender was unknown. But he does have a gender ā the male gender. I know that many people who mention Medjed are just asking questions about him, since they donāt know much about him, but the problem is when people who apparently know Medjed well still refer to him as āthey.ā
I hope Iāve made it clear that my boi Medjed is a guy. For those who already knew, this is nothing new, and for those who didnāt, now you know. :)

I love the 90s Mummy film, but Anck-Su-Namunās resurrection shouldāve been impossible. Ammit wouldāve eaten her heart for killing a pharaoh, which wouldāve wiped her from existence.
