Khufukhaf II

Khufukhaf II (meaning "Khufu raised him"; died 2430 BC) Rather, it is possible that he was a son of vizier Khufukhaf I, a son of Khufu who served as such during Khafre's reign. However, the only known sons of Khufukhaf I's were Wetka and Iuenka. Reisner claimed that Khufukhaf II was a grandson of Khufukhaf I and thus a son of either Wetka, Iuenka or Khufukhaf I's daughter. It is most possible that Khufukhaf II was a grandson, and not the son of Khufukhaf I. This however remains conjectural.
