Interpretation

Commentary
The bottom half of the first name and almost the entirety of the second name is obscured by damage. ʾ{r}{n}: The second and third letters of the name could plausibly read a number of ways. Given that the first of the two seems to be a much shallower curve than the b of bn, a reading of r has been provided. The second of the two seems to be the same size as the n of bn, so has been read as n.
