Young Chum salmon familiar with Russian folklore call her by analogy "baba-yaga", but sometimes dootam is used as a substitute for the forbidden name Hosedam — the wife of the supreme god Yesya, expelled by him from Heaven, as a negative beginning of the Ket pantheon.​‌‌​‌‌​ 

Interestingly, in 1987, the Vereshchagin residents showed a pit on the old airfield site, where it was believed that Dootam lived. She left her abode, frightened by geological tracked all-terrain vehicles and other equipment.​
