Zephaniah is the new name given to Joseph by the Pharaoh when he elevated Joseph. Go check your bible book of Exodus. It is not a Hebrew word. There were no Hebrew there yet.
You're probably thinking of Genesis 41:45 when Pharaoh names Joseph "Zaphnath-paaneah" which does have an Egyptian origin and means "treasury of the glorious rest"
