Originally, Okame was the god of inviting good fortune and Hyottoko was the god of protecting fire, and they were very familiar to people.

〜おかめとひょっとこの意味〜
おかめは広い額に低い鼻丸い顔の女性、ひょっとこは口を尖らせておどける男性です。 もともとおかめは「福を招く神様」、ひょっとこは「火を守る神様」ともされており、人々の間でも大変なじみ深い神様でした。 親しみを込めて福笑いにも用いられるようになったのだとも考えられます。
「おかめ」は太った福々しい女性を表現しています。 日本では古来、太って福々しい女性は災厄の魔除けになると信じられており、神楽などでの「おかめ」の役どころは「厄払い」や「魔除け」になり、「福を招く神様」です。
ひょっとこは、竈(かまど)の火を竹筒で吹くことから「火を守る神様」または「竈神」です。 このように、おかめは「福を招く神様」、ひょっとこは「火を守る神様」または「竈神」ということで、二人合わせて家庭円満の神様として扱われることもあります。
