There was no such title in ancient Egypt - you are thinking of "King's Great Wife", which can simply mean a queen but often refers to the favourite, first or foremost of a pharaoh's many wives. Another title used by the principal wife was "Mistress of the Two lands".

In ancient Egypt, the title "Great Chief Wife" referred to the highest-ranking wife of a pharaoh. She held a position of influence and power, often serving as a trusted advisor to the pharaoh and playing a significant role in royal affairs. The Great Chief Wife was typically chosen from among the pharaoh's many wives and was seen as the principal queen of Egypt.
