Re-Horakhty it is. Re-Horakhty is both Ra and Horus. Thus both are taken. Don't forget Crasical's Dark Music King, who's. . . Aten. . . or something like that, the underworld ferry guy. And thanks a bunch for listiing them in my stead.
So who plays whom?

Well, MY list corrected your character's name, which was misspelled I believe, and YOURS didn't, Essex. 
. . . Come to think of it. Is that good? 
XD I actually missed that. FUSSY FUSSY!
I assure you that it is, in truth, of no importance, Djehuty. XP

Uhm... Sounds like this might be intended to be Akhenaten, who was a pharoah, not a god. The god, in that case, would be Atum, who would notably be the first established 'one-god' system. Akhenaten was the pharoah who converted the empire to this monotheism.
However, if that is the case he probably wouldn't be too popular, since all the temples of Atum were destroyed/reclaimed for 'proper' gods after Akhenaten's death.
And since I am das uber-nerd, I will also include some more random facts: Akhenaten was also know as Amenhotep IV, married to the fairly famous empress Nefertiti, and was the father of Tutankhamun (of King Tut fame).
I really need to getr off my meds, cause I'm reading this forum and your all talking about Drow schoolin, Egyptian Gods, odd pictures, and somehow it all fits together really nice.
It's not that one. It's an underworld ferryman guy, whose name I simply cannot remember for more than a few seconds.
That's fine. I have fun spreading my geekdom like maneuer.

the Egyptian guide to the Underworld was Anubis.
Yeah, but it's someone else. I think one of his names is Aten.
Aten is the short-lived god that Mechanogue was talking about when Egypt had it's brief monotheistic period. He was a sun god.
Atum, or Atem, was the predecessor to Ra in the polytheistic egyptian mythology. Eventually he became Atum-Ra and then just Ra.
Okay. Then clearly I can't remember the guy's name, and should stop trying or look it up. Unless Aten ended up in the underworld. . .
The only 'ferryman to the underworld' I can think of was the guy in greek mythology who you had to pay to get across the river Styx. I think his name was Karon or Karos or something...
Go figure what the guy spent that money on.

Charon, I think. But my knowledge is as unreliable as always.
Maybe he used it to build a huge theme park called Styx Flags?
. . .Sorry.

Greece wasn't the only culture with a guide to the underworld that had to be paid...

Mahaf
Mahaf was the ferryman who navigates the boat provided by Aken, along the winding waters of the Underworld. he also acts as a herald announcing the arrival of the king into the presence of the sun god, Re.
Aken
Patron of the ferryboat that carries the souls of the dead to the underworld.
Appearance: A man dressed in the garb of a sailor, standing in the stern of a papyrus boat.
Description: Aken was the custodian of the ferryboat in the Underworld. However, he was somewhat amusing, for he had to be woken from slumber by the ferryman Mahaf to provide the boat for travel on the celestial waters.
Worship: Not truly worshipped, but mentioned in many hymns and passages of The Book of the Dead.
