'''Thutmose''' ({{IPAc-en|θ|uː|t|ˈ|m|oʊ|s|ə}};<ref>{{Cite Merriam-Webster|Thutmose}}</ref> also rendered '''Thutmoses''', '''Thutmosis''', '''Tuthmose''', '''Tutmosis''', '''Thothmes''', '''Tuthmosis''', '''Thutmes''', '''Dhutmose''', '''Djhutmose''', '''Djehutymes''', etc.) is an [[Anglicisation of names|anglicization]] of the [[ancient Egypt]]ian personal name ''<u>d</u>hwty-ms'', usually translated as "Born of the god [[Thoth]]".

Thoutmôsis (in Ancient Greek Θούθμωσις / Thoúthmôsis) is the [[Hellenized]] form of the Egyptian Ḏḥwtj-mś (reconstructed pronunciation: /tʼaˈħawtij ˈmissaw/) and means "Born of Thoth". This theophoric name was part of the royal titulary of four pharaohs of the 18th dynasty as the name of [[Nomen (ancient Egypt)|Sa-Rê or "birth name"]]. It was also worn by the eldest son of [[Amenhotep III]], high priest of [[Ptah]], as well as by a vizier who exercised his functions successively under [[Thutmose IV]] and Amenhotep III. Under this last king and under his successor, [[Amenhotep IV]], two other high dignitaries, royal sons of [[Kingdom of Kush|Kush]], similarly called themselves "Born[s] of Thoth".
