## Commentary

HT88 places the name after the NI fig logogram and before 7. Gelb's Amorite onomasticon repeatedly writes KIKKIN-I/U/UM as KI-IK-KI-NI, KI-IK-KI-NU and KI-(IK)-KI-NU-UM. The Ugaritic 'pot' comparison fails because the vessel word is kknt, with final -t; Ugaritic kkn is itself a personal name of uncertain etymology.
