Who was also known as menes he united upper and lower Egypt?

Menes is the name of an ancient Egyptian pharoah of the early dynastic period who founded Dynasty I and united Upper and Lower Egypt. He is typically identified as the pre-dynastic pharoah Narmer or the first dynasty pharoah Hor-Aha. Both Narmer and Hor-Aha are said to have united Egypt. According to English Egyptologist I.E.S. Edwards, Menes (which means "He who endures") could be "a mere descriptive epithet denoting a semi-legendary hero [...] whose name had been lost." This means that while Menes could have been a real pharoah, it's also possible, and likely, that it is the collective identity of several pre-dynastic pharoahs, including Narmer, as well as Hor-Aha.

Who was the first ruler of lower Egypt?

The Kings of Egypt were not called Pharaohs by the ancient Egyptians. This word was used by the Greeks and Hebrews, and today is commonly used for the ancient Kings of Egypt. It is not known how many kings ruled in Egypt, for at times in its ancient past the country was split up, and there were at least several kings at the same time - plus there were most likely be rulers before recorded history. Given this qualification the answer would be Aha of the 1st Dynasty. Prior to this we have Dynasty 0 which obviously would have had 'rulers' but it has not been possible to decipher their real names and there is great uncertainty as to which of these individuals were actually rulers.

The specific identities of his parents are not definitively known, as historical records from that time are limited.
