The various term variations "Germany" derive from the name Germanic tribes.
The various term variations "Alemania" derive from the name Alemanic tribes.
The various term variations "Deutsch" or "Teutsch" do not derrive from the name Teutonic tribes.

This last one is an etymological false friend. "Deutsch" derives from thiutisk (þeudisk) and in the Western Franconian and Germanic tongues it meant "our people". It's derived from the Indo-European term thiuda (Þiuda).
