 Al-`Aziz & Potiphar: A Confused Nomenclature?
In fact, the name Aziz was not Egyptian, nor is it known to have been in use by any Egyptian during the period Joseph lived.
As far as the variations between the two narratives are concerned, the Qur'an supersedes the Bible in historical accuracy by correctly referring to Egypt's ruler as King, and not Pharaoh and the mention of crucifixion during the time of Joseph and Moses.
In this scope, the claim that ‘Aziz was the name of the historical individual in question results from a misreading of the text.

 Rebuttals to Islamic Awareness : Al-`Azîz & Potiphar
In the Quranic version of the story, Mohammad gives the name of the master of the house as "Aziz." Aside from the variations between the Biblical and Quranic versions, it is important to note that the name Aziz is uniquely Arabic.
Further, it is argued that 'Aziz' was not an Egyptian name, nor was it knowing to have been used by the Egyptians during Joseph's(P) time.
The claim that Aziz was Potiphar's proper name is as absurd as the claim that al-Aziz [or the Egyptian equivalent of this] was his, or anyone else's, title in ancient Egypt.

 In custody, Aziz ready to name names - Lisa Myers & the NBC Investigative Unit - MSNBC.com
Former Iraqi deputy prime minister Tariq Aziz was the sophisticated, intelligent face of a thuggish regime.
U.S. officials say Aziz already has implicated the French and others, claiming payoffs were made with the understanding that recipients would support Iraq on key matters before the U.N. "He pointed to specific individuals in Russia and France, in the United States — that received favorable treatment," says David Kay.
Once Saddam's tireless defender, Aziz is now singing a very different tune, to please his new keeper.
