- At least etymology doesn't make much sense.
- For a proper noun it's more likely that it derives directly from another proper noun, in this case it's more likely that English Gieschen derives from German *Gieschen or *Gießchen.
- German Giess seems doubtful. Traditionally it would rather be *Gieß (as in gießen, Gießen) and even deformed it would be *Gieß (except Swiss which would have *Giess).
- If the English comes from *Gießchen or *Gieß (Swiss *Giesschen, *Giess), it's more likely *Gießchen or *Giesschen than Gieschen.
- But the trusting thing rather seems to be a matter of WT:RFV or WT:RFE. -84.161.20.16 15:32, 28 October 2017 (UTC)
- The surname is real. The rest was a load of bullshit, which is now all removed. —Μετάknowledgediscuss/deeds 07:07, 11 January 2018 (UTC)
