See Württemberg in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Proper name

IPA: /ˈvʏʁtəmbɛʁk/ Audio: De-Württemberg.ogg Forms: Württembergs [genitive], Württemberg [genitive, with-article]
Etymology: Named after the mountain Württemberg in Stuttgart-Rotenberg, probably of Celtic/Gaulish origin, from *Wirodūnon, composed of *wiros (“man”) and *dūnom (“fortress, hill”). This is also the source of the French city Verdun, Latinized as Medieval Latin Virodūnum in the middle ages. Some prefer a derivation from the House of Württemberg in Luxembourg, but this could itself be from the Celtic name. Etymology templates: {{der|de|cel|-}} Celtic, {{der|de|cel-gau|-}} Gaulish, {{der|de|ML.|Virodūnum}} Medieval Latin Virodūnum Head templates: {{de-proper noun|toponym}} Württemberg n (proper noun, genitive Württembergs or (optionally with an article) Württemberg)
