Where this word comes from

Uncertain root + -la. The surname is from northern Finland; compare Vuokkiniemi, a rural locality east of Kainuu; in parts of North Karelia, wandering traders were called vuokki or vuokkilainen after it. Compare also the Sami word for "fishing rod" (e.g. Northern Sami vuogga); the phonology points towards a Sami origin.
