他のアナトリアの魔術に関わる神々とは異なり、彼女は天界の住人と見なされていた<ref>Taracha, 2009, p115</ref>。名前の由来から、雲や煙と関係があるのではと言われている<ref>Frantz-Szabó, 1980, p351</ref>。彼女は馬<ref>Archi, 1993, p408</ref>に引かれた戦車で移動すると信じられており、その移動手段はルウィの太陽神ティワズ(Tiwad)に関連するものであった<ref>Taracha, 2009, p114</ref>。
彼女はハッティやパラの女神[[カタジウリ]]と関係があり<ref>Taracha, 2009, p58</ref>、ヒッタイトとハッティの対訳テキストでは両者は対応しているが、名前は語源的には関連していない。
Unlike other Anatolian deities connected with magic, she was regarded as a resident of heaven. It has been proposed she was connected to clouds or smoke, based on the possible origin of her name. She was believed to travel in a chariot drawn by horses, a mode of locomotion also attributed to the Luwian sun god Tiwad, who was associated with her.
While she was connected with the Hattic and Palaic goddess Kataḫzipuri, and in bilingual [[Hittite language|Hittite]]-[[Hattic language|Hattic]] texts they correspond to each other,{{sfn|Taracha|2009|p=58}} their names were not etymologically related.{{sfn|Frantz-Szabó|1980|p=351}} ''Kamrušepa'' likely means "spirit of the clouds" or "spirit of smoke" ("Genius der Wolke/des Qualms"),{{sfn|Frantz-Szabó|1980|p=351}} though the connection between the first half of her name and the Hittite word ''kammara'' ("smoke") might only be a folk etymology,{{sfn|Taracha|2009|pp=114-115}} while the name of Kataḫzipuri had an unrelated Hattic etymology and means "queen of the land."{{sfn|Frantz-Szabó|1980a|p=478}} Piotr Taracha proposed that in Palaic sources Kataḫzipuri might have functioned simply as an epithet of Kamrušepa applied to her due to contact with Hattic communities.{{sfn|Taracha|2009|p=58}}
Her attribute was an iron throne.{{sfn|Haas|2015|p=439}}
