The exonym "Gothevian" is a [[w:Medieval Latin|Latinized borrowing]] of the [[w:Koine Greek|Koine Greek]] term "Γότθευικος" (Góttheuikos), itself a variant of older "Γότθευδικος" (Góttheudikos), a borrowing from "𐌲𐌿𐍄𐌸𐌹𐌿𐌳𐌹𐍃𐌺𐍃" (gutþiudisks), from "[[wikt:𐌲𐌿𐍄𐌸𐌹𐌿𐌳𐌰|𐌲𐌿𐍄𐌸𐌹𐌿𐌳𐌰]]" (gutþiuda) + "[[wikt:-𐌹𐍃𐌺𐍃|𐌹𐍃𐌺𐍃]]" (-isks), thus meaning "of the Goths". The endonym {{lang|gthv|sc=Gthv|gušk}} (gušk) is a cognate of the Latin exonym, being a simplification of earlier {{lang|gthv|sc=Gthv|gútsišk}} (gútsišk), from Old Gothevian {{lang|gthv|sc=Gthv|gútsiudišk}} (gutþiudisk). | The exonym "Gothevian" is a [[w:Medieval Latin|Latinized borrowing]] of the [[w:Koine Greek|Koine Greek]] term "Γότθευικος" (Góttheuikos), itself a variant of older "Γότθευδικος" (Góttheudikos), a borrowing from "𐌲𐌿𐍄𐌸𐌹𐌿𐌳𐌹𐍃𐌺𐍃" (gutþiudisks), from "[[wikt:𐌲𐌿𐍄𐌸𐌹𐌿𐌳𐌰|𐌲𐌿𐍄𐌸𐌹𐌿𐌳𐌰]]" (gutþiuda) + "[[wikt:-𐌹𐍃𐌺𐍃|-𐌹𐍃𐌺𐍃]]" (-isks), thus meaning "of the Goths".
