The name "Tuefel-Hunden" is likely derived from the German nickname for U.S. Marines: "Teufel Hunden", or "Devil Dogs", which arose around WW1. An early title for the song, "Tuffen Hunds" (a butchering of the nickname), was mentioned on [[May 9]], [[2006]] under the news section of Koch's website [[karlophone.com]].<ref>[[Karl Koch|Koch, Karl]]. (2006, May 9). ''News''. Karlophone.com. Archived from the original on Weezerpedia at [[Karlophone.com - News]].</ref> The song was featured in the [[2008]] Warren Miller skiing documentary ''[[Children of Winter]]'', in the "Cordova, Alaska" section. The film additionally contained two [[Weezer]] songs ("[[Troublemaker]]" and "[[The Greatest Man That Ever Lived (Variations on a Shaker Hymn)]]"), as well as another Karlophone song, "[[The Other End of the Friend]]".
The song's title - an alteration on a German phrase meaning "devil dogs" - is a reference to the {{Wiki2|United_States_Marine_Corps#World_War_I|historically-unconfirmed nickname}} that Germans soldiers supposedly used for American Marines during World War I. The song was initially known by the similar title "Tuffen Hunds," (a butchering of the nickname), as revealed by [[Karl Koch]] on [[May 9]], [[2006]] under the news section of his website [[karlophone.com]].<ref>[[Karl Koch|Koch, Karl]].
