Is it that it's the Swedish word for cock?

He's not a god per se, he's part of a process for creating a universe. The Egyptians actually had several creation myths, Kek is only in one of them.

Seven leading European archaeologists have issued a European Association of Archaeologists Declaration stating:

We, the undersigned professional archaeologists from all parts of Europe, wish to protest strongly at the continuing support by the Bosnian authorities for the so-called "pyramid" project being conducted on hills at and near Visoko. This scheme is a cruel hoax on an unsuspecting public and has no place in the world of genuine science. It is a waste of scarce resources that would be much better used in protecting the genuine archaeological heritage and is diverting attention from the pressing problems that are affecting professional archaeologists in Bosnia-Herzegovina on a daily basis.[8]

The deities who make up the Ogdoad differ from one source to another.
Nun and his female counterpart Naunet, the deities of the primeval waters, are
nearly always included. Naunet may be a primeval form of the sky goddess,
Nut. Amun and Amunet, deities of invisible power or the breath of life, are in
some of the oldest lists. When Amun was regarded as a creator separate from
the eight, he and Amunet were replaced by Nia and Niat, deities of the void.
Primeval darkness was represented by Kek and Keket or occasionally Gereh and
Gerehet. Some lists have Tenemet, “chaos,” or Heh and his female counterpart
Hehet. Heh and Hehet are difficult to interpret. They may originally have em-
bodied the strong currents in the Primeval Waters. The Ogdoad of Hermopolis
was sometimes treated as identical with the group of four or eight Heh gods cre-
ated by Shu to help him support the sky. They in turn were sometimes identi-
fied with the “Eastern Souls,” the eight baboons who helped the sun to rise.

The Ogdoad of Hermopolis was a group of eight primeval deities whose chief
cult center was Khenmw (Eight Town), later called Hermopolis Magna. The
Ogdoad embodied the qualities of primeval matter, such as darkness, moistness,
and lack of boundaries or visible powers. It usually consisted of four deities douled to eight by including female counterparts. Obeying some primitive in-
stinct, the eight came together to make the place (the Primeval Mound or the
Island of Flame) or an object (the Primeval Lotus or the Cosmic Egg) from which
the creator sun god emerged. This made the Ogdoad “the fathers and mothers”
of the creator. Alternatively, creator gods such as Amun, Ptah, or Thoth were
viewed as calling the eight into being. The creator was then “his” own ancestor,
the “father of the fathers and mothers.”


The Ogdoad could be represented in human form, but sometimes the males
have frog or jackal heads and the females snake heads. The amphibian and
snake forms of the Ogdoad were thought of as mating in and fertilizing the
Primeval Waters. An image of the waters alive with glutinous frog spawn may
be what the Egyptians had in mind. In some sources, the Ogdoad seem to be
forces that the creator has to subdue before the work of creation can begin. In
others they simply seem to die after bringing forth life. The Primeval Mound
was both the place of creation and the tomb of the Ogdoad. The Heh gods could
then be thought of as the shadows or heavenly souls of the Ogdoad.
The Heh gods belonged to the twilight after dusk and before dawn. This
was the equivalent in the daily solar cycle to the period of precreation in the
great cycle of mythical history. The Ogdoad merged in the primeval waters to
allow the creator to come into being, and the Heh gods acted together to make
the void in which the earth could come into being. Members of the Ogdoad
such as Nun and Naunet and Kek and Keket were said to help the sun to be re-
born as Khepri every morning.
