פרעה

From Egyptian pr ꜥꜣ (“great house”), originally referring to the palace of the Egyptian king, but later came to refer to the king himself, whence the Hebrew sense.

Use as a proper noun occurs many times in the Bible; use as a common noun appears to be much more recent, and is perhaps due to influence from European languages.
