According to Ref.4 (Ryholt. The political situation in Egypt during the second intermediate period, p.127,150):

"The name Sakir-Har is evidently a theo-phorous name, compounded with Har, Canaanite harru, 'mountain'. This sacred, or deified, mountain, is attested in at least two other names, which are both West Semitic, and so there is reason to suspect the present name also may be West Semitic... Accordingly, the name here under consideration would mean '[Sakir] of Har'... The deified mountain Har is attested in the name Sakir-Har"
