The Germans refer to their country as Deutschland.
The German national How_did_Germany_get_its_namewas Deutschland unde Alles (or close to that?).
The name Deutschland is derived from the Old High German diutisc, or similar variants from Proto-Germanic *Þeudiskaz, which originally meant "of the people". This in turn comes from a Germanic word meaning "folk" (leading to Old High German diot, Middle High German How_did_Germany_get_its_name), and was used to differentiate between the speakers of Germanic languages and those who spoke Celtic or How_did_Germany_get_its_namelanguages. These words come from *teuta, the Proto-Indo-European word for "people" (Lithuanian tauto, Old Irish tuath, Old English þeod).
The Italian word for the Germans was tedesco or Tedeschi (variants: todesco, tudesco, todisco) comes from the same Old High German root, although not the name for "Germany" (Germania). The British soldiers fighting in How_did_Germany_get_its_namein WW2 shortened this to Teds.
