Imyramesha is a military title, not a name. This should be renamed to Smenkhkare (13th dynasty). – Alensha   talk  17:40, 11 October 2009 (UTC)
 * yes, your are right, but in this case the title was used as proper name in a cartouche, there are indeed other examples where private individuals have this name as proper name (compare Ryholt, Situation, 221-222 with further examples). Semenkhkare is the throne name of this king. On Wiki for Egyptian kings, always the proper name is given. bw -- Udimu (talk) 18:10, 11 October 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for the info, I didn't know he used it as a proper name. Can you add the cartouche? It would improve the article. – Alensha   talk  18:20, 11 October 2009 (UTC)

Pharaoh
Kings of Egypt are popularily called pharaohs, but pharaohs is a term used later on. Secondly, the term pharaoh refers to a "great king", not the petty kings of the 13-17th dynasties who often were omitted from the official king lists.
