Rahonem (fl. c. 2500 BC) was an Egyptian musician. She was the director of the female singers and tabour (drum) players in her temple.^[1]

Rahonem was both the chief woman manager of the lesser wives and director of the female musical performers. She has the same title as that given to the priestess-musician.^[1]
