Sinivali
Sinivali (, ) is a Vedic goddess, mentioned in two hymns of the Rigveda, in RV 2.32 and RV 10.184. In 2.32.7-8 she is described as broadhipped, fair-armed, fair-fingered, presiding over fecundity and easy birth. She is invoked together with Ganga, Raaka, Saraswati, Indrani and Varunani. In 10.184.2, she is invoked together with Saraswati to place the fetus in the womb. In Atharvaveda 7.46, she is described as the consort of Vishnu. Hence, Sinivali is identified as goddess Lakshmi. Sinivali is also mentioned as a name of Lakshmi in her Sahasranama.

Lamaria
Lamaria (also Lamara or Lamia; ) is a goddess in Georgian mythology, specifically of the Svan ethnic subgroup. Like many other deities of the Svan pantheon, her name is derived from a Christian figure; in her case, Mary, mother of Jesus. Lamaria is the goddess of the hearth, protector of cattle, and a protector of women – particularly during childbirth. She also ensured the fertility of a village's grain fields. She was also known as a patron of beekeeping, although that function was later assigned to the Svan interpretation of St. George.
