Egypt is the internationally used name but not the name used by the people of the country. It derives from the Greek Aegyptos, which in turn probably comes from ancient Egyptian words referring to the land ( Hut-ka-ptah, or house of the essence [ka] of Ptah, a local god).
Today, Egyptians carry names that have Egyptian, Arabic, Turkish, Greek origins (especially Coptic ones) among others. The concept of a surname is lacking in Egypt. Rather, Egyptians tend to carry their father's name as their first middle name, and stop at the 2nd or 3rd first name, which thus becomes one's surname. The Greek name is derived from Late Egyptian Hikuptah  Memphis , a corruption of the earlier Egyptian name Hat-ka-Ptah (á¸¥wt-k3-ptá¸¥), meaning home of the ka (soul) of Ptah, the name of a temple to the god Ptah at Memphis.
