Deutsch term

Andreützo

Deutsch > Englisch Kunst/Literatur Dichtung und Belletristik
He's a character in Boccaccio's Decameron (Day II, story 5). Does anyone know how the name is usually written in English - or, for that matter, in Italian - because I don't imagine it has the umlaut in either language.
