I do not know the name Egyptians would call the constellation, but the constellations have been identifed for a very long time in human History. Whatever ancient Egyptians called a lion would be the name identifying the constellation.

Not necessarily. The constellation we call Orion was called Osiris by the ancient Egyptians and was called The Heavenly Shepard by the ancient Babylonians.................
