I was wondering if anbody knows the origin of family name Wachuta.?

I was told the name was from Romanian gypsys, but I'm not really sure. It could be from Germany or Czechalsolvakia.

Yes it is German. Thus try Germany, Austria
Reply:Wachuta is actually a Westphalian name meaning 'donkey miser' or literally, 'one who refuses to share his aass.' The original spelling is Waschutastein, commonly shortened after 1938 to sound less Jewish.
