Since Sámi is the majority language, shouldn't the article be on the Sámi name? --81.197.73.47 15:53, 15 July 2006 (UTC)Reply
Karigasniemi, Finland, apparently does have a Saami majority, and for that reason apparently should have a Saami name. This appears to be a matter of indigenous people's identity versus national identity, where the Saami people apparently have an international recognition, although Karigasniemi, the municipality, is in the nation of Finland.
