Name hexatip blend

This euclidean honeycomb uses hexat (for cells) in the sense of an infinite horohedron.

It can be considered as derived from hexatips, when blended in the same way as a blend of 2 hips derives a tuhip. In fact those hexatips then behave like the aze lines in a hollow squat, as can be clearly seen in the above top-view.
