Joseph and Imhotep?

NOTE Edited on Wednesday 26th August 2020.

I've done another thorough study of Imhotep and Joseph and the similarities between Imhotep and Joseph are pretty convincing despite that there are some seeming differences. It looks like Imhotep must be an Egyptian rendering of the name Joseph. Imhotep's name is variously rendered Imhotep / Iemhetep / Iimhtp / Iu-em-hept / *Ja-im-hatap / Jjmhtp / Imouthes, and some of these renderings are similar to Joseph/Yahuwseph especially if the -em- is omitted like in similar Egyptian names/words such as Shemsu/Shasu, Romt/Rot, Aa-en-ru/Aaru. So Ron Wyatt and Dr Lennart Moller seem to be right about Joseph being Imhotep. (Not sure who came first Wyatt or Moller?) Meanwhile it also seems that Joseph as Zaphenath matches Sekhemhet as I said in my article on that, and if this is not wrong then we have matches for both names Joseph and Zaphenath in the same time. In addition we can add the discovery that Jacob certainly seems to match Khufu/Cheops of the 4th dynasty (the dynasty just after the one that Imhotep was in). To further prove the match we also need to find matches for the other persons etc in the story of Joseph (Potiphar, Potiphera, Asenath, etc).
Below are the similarities and differences between Imhotep and Joseph that I have collected together. Though most of the details about Imhotep are only from much later traditions/legends and not many are from contemporary records. The Sahel/Philae inscription account of the famine is a very late record (Ptolemaic dynasty).

Imhotep: His name is Imhotep/Iemhetep/Iimhtp/Iu-em-hept/*Ja-im-hatap/Jjmhtp/Imouthes.
Joseph: His Hebrew name is Joseph/Yahuwseph/Joses/Asaph and his Egyptian name is Tafneos/Zaphenath-paneah/Psothom-phanech.
The three names are different. Though Ja & hotep is similar to Joseph in English and the -em- could be omitted as in Shemsu/Schesoo/Shasu, Rom/Romt/Rot/Auritae, Aa-en-ru/Aaru. Unless Joseph was also given another name in Egyptian.
Joseph's name Zaphenath may match Sekhemhet.

Imhotep: His name means "he who comes in peace" or according to Wyatt "the voice (or mouth) of Im (or I Am)". But Wyatt's meaning is probably not right.
Joseph: His name Joseph means "he shall add/increase". The meaning of his name Zaphenath-paneah is unknown and there are alot of theories as to what it means.
The meanings of the names are different.
Though Joseph can be said to have come in peace.

Imhotep: His father is Kanofer (a celebrated architect, 1st in a long line of architects) or Ptah. He is also called the "successor of Thoth".
Joseph: His father is Jacob/Israel (who matches Khufu/Cheops).
The 2 father's names are different. Unless Jacob was given a different name in Egyptian. The meaning of the name Kanofer might match Jacob? Though Joseph could be said to be a son of Yah/El/God who is similar to Ptah.
Or son of god Ptah could match Joseph had no known father in Egypt?

Imhotep: His mother is Khereduankh ("probably from Mendes", deified alongside her son) or Hathor (daughter of Banebdjedet) or Sekhmet or Nut.
Joseph: His mother is Rachel (daughter of Laban, and she died before Jacob came to Egypt), and his step-mother is Leah.
The 2 mother's names are different. Though Kheredu-ankh might possibly be slightly similar to Rachel (considering hieroglypic names might be read different ways, and considering changes between Hebrew & Egyptian. Unless his mother had a different name in Egyptian.

Imhotep: His wife is Rashaa.
Joseph: His wife is Asenath daughter of Potiphera (Ke) (priest) of On.
The two wives names are different. Though both names have a & s & h, and possibly the n & r could interchange and the two consonants could be transposed? Or his wife could of had 2 names.

Imhotep: He was born in Ankhtowe/Memphis in Egypt.
Joseph: He was born in Padan-Aram (north Mesopotamia/Syria/Armenia).
The 2 birth places are different. Unless Joseph was "born" as Imhotep at Memphis. There is evidence that Joseph was at Memphis or Sakkarah.

Imhotep: His sister is Renpetnef(e)ret (though this is late tradition and might not be true).
Joseph: His half-sister is Dinah. (One source suggests Jacob also had another daughter?)
The sisters are different. Though the two sisters might be similar, and Dinah could have been given a different name in Egyptian?

Imhotep: One source says he lived to a 110 yrs old (though the source might not be reliable?)
Joseph: He lived to a 110 yrs old.
Both lived to the same age. (Though a 110 yrs old is a "perfect old  age" in Egyptian and might not pin-point any one time.)

Imhotep: He was a master-builder / chief-architect / engineer/designer/sculptor/carpenter. He built the Step Pyramid. Stone buildings/architecture. Craftsmen, technicians. In the Step Pyramid complex Wyatt found grain storage bins.
