Ḥeḥ (also Huh, Hah, Hauh, Huah, Hahuh and Hehu[citation needed]) was the personification of infinity or eternity in the Ogdoad in Egyptian mythology.[1]
His name originally meant "flood", referring to the watery chaos that the Egyptians believed existed before the creation of the world.[2] The Egyptians envisioned this chaos as infinite, in contrast with the finite created world, so Heh personified this aspect of the primordial waters.[3]
The primary meaning of the term ḥeḥ was "million" or "millions"; subsequently, a personification of Ḥeḥ was adopted as the Egyptian god of infinity.
Like the other concepts in the Ogdoad, his male form was often depicted as a frog, or a frog-headed human, and his female form as a snake or snake-headed human. The frog head symbolised fertility, creation, and regeneration, and was also possessed by the other Ogdoad males Kek, Amun, and Nun.[4]

I am pretty sure Douglas Adams would be a little miffed with the use of his satire in this manner. He was a staunch atheist.
