One of Thutmose III's daughters named Meritamen with Benermerut. It is unclear if this depiction is of Meritamen C or Meritamen D.

Meritamen (“Beloved of Amun”) was the name of two princesses during the Eighteenth Dynasty of Egypt, referred to as Meritamen C and Meritamen D by modern historians. Both were the daughters of Pharaoh Thutmose III and his Great Royal Wife Merytre-Hatshepsut.[1] Their name is alternatively spelled Meritamun.
