In addition to the standard forms of Ninatta's and Kulitta's names known from Hurrian and Hittite texts, Akkadian variants Ninitum and Kulittum are known from Neo-Assyrian sources.

[3] However, Piotr Taracha [de] instead argues that they should be understood as designations for minor hypostases of both individual goddesses, per analogy with Maliyanni, Allanzunni or Šarrumanni.

[5] They were worshiped together as a dyad, which is considered an example of a phenomenon widespread in Hurrian religion, in which pairs of related deities were often believed to act as a unity and were therefore venerated together, as also attested in the case of Allani and Išḫara or Hutena and Hutellura.

[9] Westenholz tentatively suggested connecting her with Šauška, Ishtar of Nineveh and Ninatta, though she stressed it is not possible to ascertain the relationship between these deities and their names in the earliest periods.

[18] In the text RS 24.261, which documents a ritual combining Hurrian and Ugaritic elements focused on Šauška and closely associated local goddess Ashtart,[19] Ninatta and Kulitta are listed in sequence as recipients of offerings twice, once after an unidentified deity and before Nupatik, and once after Nikkal and before Adamma.

[5] They also appear in the Egyptian version of the treaty between the Hittite Empire and Egypt[24] originally compiled in 1259 BCE, during the reign of Ramesses II to cement peace established after the end of a conflict between these two states which culminated with the battle of Kadesh.

[26] Since a similar mistake is also attested in the case of Ḫepat, Itamar Singer concluded that presumably the cuneiform sign dingir which prefaced theonyms was misunderstood in translation.

[7] According to Beate Pongratz-Leisten, Kulitta might additionally be attested in a Neo-Assyrian ritual from Assur as a recipient of offerings alongside Ashur, Ishtar and the Sebitti, though only a part of the name is preserved, making the identification uncertain.

[32] According to Meindert Dijkstra's restoration of the myth of Ḫašarri, Ninatta and Kulitta also appear in this composition, with one of the surviving sections possibly describing them threshing grain.
