Der Bestand-teil mꜣꜥ.t lautet hier also keilschriftlich -mu-u-. Bork (Mitannisprache, S. 14ff.) hat nun wahrscheinlich gemacht, daß im Subaräischen das Zeichen 𒌋 = u stets den Vokal *o ausdrückt, im Gegensatz zu 𒌑 = ú, das *u zu lesen sei. Damit würde Nb-mꜣꜥ.t-rꜥ für das Neue Reich etwa als *Nibmōꜥarīꜥa zu rekonstruieren sein.
