词源

From Middle English Gothes, Gotes (both plural). In turn partly from Old English Gotan, singular Gota, and partly from Late Latin Gothi. The expected term from Old English alone would be "goat", see Old English "flota" -> Modern English "float". The modern form is almost certainly then a wholesale loan of the Latin term rather than partly native. Ultimately from Proto-Germanic *gutô, perhaps from *geutaną (“to pour”). Compare Old Norse Goti (“Gotlander, Goth”), and related also to Gutnish, Gotland.
