Translation of Sagani's site:

This universally famous name is in fact a nickname, carried in the family of Gustave Eiffel since the beginning of the XVIII century and undoubtedly returning with Eifel, wooded solid mass of Germany (the Rhineland-Palatinat). The true name of this family is Boenickhausen (or Bonickausen), toponym which could correspond to the commune of Bönninghausen (theRhineland of North-Westphalia).
