Specifically, in Veronique Dasen's book, "Dwarfs in Ancient Egypt and Greece". In speaking of Seneb:

"Various priesthoods contributed to his income; he was attached to the funerary service of Kings Khufu and Radjedev. As a sign of respect, he gave his three children names referring to them: his son was called Radjedefankh 'May Radjedef live', his elder daughter Awibkhufu 'Happy is Khufu', while his younger daughter was named Smeretradjedef 'Companion of Radjedef'.
