The Egyptian god Amen, often associated with the sun and air, was considered a creator deity and a protector of the pharaohs. He was primarily worshipped in Thebes, where he became known as Amen-Ra after being merged with the sun god Ra. Amen represented hidden power and was invoked for blessings and protection, symbolizing both the unseen aspects of life and the divine authority of the kings. His worship played a crucial role in ancient Egyptian religion and politics.

Yep. The last part of the name, Amen, refers to a god. This was pretty common practice for Egyptian rulers, who were often perceived as being gods themselves. I would like to add that people ignorantly still worship Amen, by ending their prayers with this word.
