Here are my own ideas for how the Big Four could fit into the world of ancient Egypt.

Hiccup could be the son of a pharaoh with a big legacy to live up to, like Ramses. As dragons aren't native to Egyptian mythology, Toothless could either be

1- a foreign dragon who arrived in Egypt.

2- an Akhekhu- a mythical four-legged serpent, the Egyptian equivalent of a dragon.

3- an Uraeus, a winged cobra sacred to the pharaohs, and to Ra.

or a Petsuchos, a sacred crocodile. I imagine them as having wings, to make them unique.

Since the Egyptians haven't got a snow god, Jack would be a storm deity like Set, the uncle of Horus(sandstorms as opposed to blizzards). Admittedly, since Set's mainly an antagonist in Egyptian myth, it means Jack's got a bad reputation, but he already had that with Bunny at the start of his film anyway.

Rapunzel's powers and hair? She's a princess blessed with the solar powers of Ra.

Merida is a warrior-priestess of Sekhmet, due to her desire to stay single and fight for her rights. Sekhmet is a lioness-headed goddess because Egypt is not bear country. Merida also could be discriminated against because she's got red hair like Set.
