Abstract: This article examines the explanations for the place name (component) -büttel/Büttel presented to date and concludes that it is still not possible to derive the name (component) without contradiction or without the assumption of analogical processes. The older derivations are presented at the current level of historical (comparative) linguistics and the traditional possibilities of linkage are retraced, but even the knowledge gained in the last two decades or so does not help to solve the problem. At least some ambiguities surrounding -büttel/Büttel can be clarified.
