In addition, because of this event, Izanami is also called Yomotsu Okami (the great god of the Yominokuni) or Chishiki no Okami (the god who caught up [with Izanagi]), and the boulder that was used to close the Yomotsu Hirasaka off is called Chikaeshi no Okami (the god to the way back to the Yominokuni) or Yomito no Okami (the god of the door to the Yominokuni).
なお、この事件から、イザナミのことを黄泉津大神（よもつおほかみ）・道敷大神（ちしきのおほかみ）とも呼び、黄泉比良坂を塞いだ大岩を道返之大神（ちかへしのおほかみ）・黄泉戸大神（よみとのおほかみ）とも言う。
