Names Of God
There are various names of God, many of which enumerate the various Quality (philosophy), qualities of a Supreme Being. The English word ''God (word), god'' (and its equivalent in other languages) is used by multiple religions as a noun to refer to different deities, or specifically to the Supreme Being, as denoted in English by the capitalized and uncapitalized terms ''God'' and ''deity, god''. Ancient cognate equivalents for the biblical Hebrew ''Elohim'', one of the most common Names of God in Judaism, names of God in the Bible, include Proto-Semitic language, proto-Semitic ''El (deity), El'', biblical Aramaic ''Names of God in Judaism#Elah, Elah'', and Arabic ''ilah''.

Lars Levi Laestadius (; 10 January 1800 – 21 February 1861) was a Swedish Sami writer, ecologist, mythologist, and ethnographer as well as a pastor and administrator of the Swedish state Lutheran church in Lapland who founded the Laestadian pietist revival movement to help his largely Sami congregations, who were being ravaged by alcoholism. Laestadius himself became a teetotaller (except for his ongoing use of wine in holy Communion) in the 1840s, when he began successfully talking his Sami parishioners out of alcoholism. Laestadius was also a noted botanist and an author.

Juoksáhkká
Juoksáhkká (also Juksakka, Joeksaahka ; Stäukedne ) is a goddess in Sámi shamanism related to childbirth. She is one of the daughters of Máttaráhkká along with Sáráhkká and Uksáhkká and lived in the ground under the goahti, at the back according to some sources. She was only known to Sámi in Scandinavian parts of Sápmi but not, for example, in the area of modern day Finland. Juoksáhkká helped with the development and birth of a child, and if she was brought offerings enough, she could change the child's sex from female to male in the womb. As sons were more wanted than daughters, she was given plentiful offerings. According to Christfried Ganander in 1789, she also helped women during menstruation and protected children from shots and falls. Ganander gave many of Juoksáhkká's features to Uksáhkká and vice versa and claimed that she was always at odds with Lieaibolmmai. After a woman had given birth, she ate the porridge of Sáráhkká.

She also made sure a child wouldn't get lost from the goahti. She was offered drinks poured to her home, under the goahti's door. Christfried Ganander gave many of Juoksáhkká's features to Uksáhkká and vice versa, claiming that Uksáhkká could turn daughters into sons in the womb, typically Juoksáhkká's role.
