Origin of the name
German wikipedia says:
Der Name des Ortes wird auf das althochdeutsche viuhtje - fichta zurückgeführt, also auf die Fichte (mundartlich Féichdn).
it says the name is based on the old german word for the spruce tree (german: fichte), not "wet/humid" (which is what i would think of in the first place, too :D)
so.. either the german or english wikipedia is wrong! (omg ;-)
