That piece is the same which I have heard called elephant in african chess. It is said to be better than queen, but I am not sure if it is really better than Maharajah. Maharajah can go all the same squares, unless it is blocked. Maybe mix of these pieces would be better. Maybe we could call it Elephant Mounted Maharajah,
