Seems to me that the -TIY attachment is a contracted אתי ATIY, 
a variant of אני ANIY, 'I', preserved only in compounds. There is 
also an אכי AKIY, preserved in אנוכי ANOKIY. Corresponding to
אתה ATAH we have אכה AKAH, preserved as an attachment 
in שלך $EL-KAH, 'yours', for male. Corresponding to את AT we 
have אך AK preserved in שלך $EL-AK, 'yours', for female.
