"Gumel" meaning in Alemannic German

See Gumel in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

Forms: Gumeli [diminutive]
Etymology: Unknown. One theory that has been suggested is that the first potatoes in the canton of Schwyz were cultivated on the farm "Hof Gummi in Röten bei Goldau" in the year 1727. Another theory suggests a connection between this term and other, similar sounding ones like Bachgummele (an uncommon synonym for Bachbumbele (“Caltha palustris”)), Rossgumele (a regional synonym of Rossbolle (“road apple”), Gumme (a rare synonym of Buchsbeeri (“Arctostaphylos uva-ursi”)), from which a common meaning of "small, bulbous object" has been derived. Compare also Palatine German Gumpel, Gump, Gummel (“big, plump nose”) and also compare the term Chnollenase (“bulbous nose”, literally “corm nose”) (related to German Knollennase) which may explain the semantic bridge.
