The thing is, Kristoff isn't even a Scandinavian name. The Scandinavian version of the name is Kristoffer, but our ostensibly Sami friend here must have had his name borrowed from some Central European majority culture he's been influenced by.

Among the older generation in Norway and Sweden at least you'll find a pool of names that are way overrepresented among the Sami. I'm not saying they should have named him Ante Sara Gaup or anything, but if they meant for him to be taken as Sami in either of these two countries, it could have been a start to use a name such as Mikkel or Mattis or Isak or Nils instead of, well, making one up.
