Egyptian gods
Min-Amun or Amun-Min
brought up
Extract
The composite god Amun-Min was known as Kamutef (“Bull of his mother”).
In later periods, Min was linked to Reshep, the Semitic god of war and thunder. Both gods were thought to be married to Qadesh the Semitic love goddess, although Min was often considered to be the child of Reshep and Qadesh.

Indeed.
There is a site called "Let Me Google That For You" solely for such questions.

the verbal history of ancient Egypt is probably the civilization that occupied the city long after the originals died out from something

I did not know about such a site
My method was to copy this portion of the Post
where the 3 line format was reduced to a single line
Ms Chrome took the single line, found the place where the answer resided and passed the http to Mr Google who forwarded the address to me

This button on the lmgtfy site:
turns this url: https://lmgtfy.app/?q=Min-Amun or Amun-Min (which gives away the joke to savvy users)
into this URL: https://bfy.tw/SqFK (which obscures the joke until the unsuspecting user follows the link)
Didn't even know there was a joke in the thread
Best cease now before my brain needs more coffee

The 'joke' is making it look like you're spoonfeeding them to the answer they seek, when instead, you're giving them a highly sarcastic "Google that yourself, you lazy bum."
And yet, if we back all the way up to the pretend question, it remains unclear how the pretense of confusion even works. That is, if it was an anime character, I might suggest the difference is whether you're in Japan or North America. It took years before I figured out that Mikado was the exception because nobody could write a line in either language in which calling him Ryuugamine is any less clunky than Harrison Ford getting the coordinates from the navicomputer. I always feel like when Walker says Mikado's name sounds like it comes from a manga, the actual Japanese line is supposed to be, "Your ancestors should have been extinguished." Like the stinkng smell of gin on Jimmy-Joe's breath, the night I became a woman in the back of that Buick. Sorry. Never mind.
Anyway, every now and then it occurs to wonder whence comes this or that particular confusion.
Trust me, I built my kid's name to be a pain in someone's ass, but those are different rules than Egyptian antiquity; the one thing nobody would ever ask is which order the hyphenated part goes.
look the only thing i know about acient egyptian i learned from stargate sg-1 which is its not that difficult once you figure out the vowels
