Teutoberga is a fabricated name for Lukas' Mom, Beate Peter.

Origin

During a phone conversation between Kevin and Rama in 2004, the subject of Lukas came up. Somehow, the topic of Lukas's mom came up, at which point Rama uttered "Teuto Berga". Kevin then asked what Rama meant, with Rama replying,unfazed, that it was Lukas's mom's name. Kevin, doubting this but not really able to conceive a reason why Rama would make it up, acknowledged the information and the two continued forth with the conversation. Shortly afterward, Kevin used the same technique Rama did on Lukas in a phone call: randomly saying "Teutoberga" during an otherwise unrelated topic. Lukas, confused, asked Kevin what he meant, with Kevin replying that it was the name of Lukas's mom, according to Rama. Lukas corrected this assertion by stating that his mom's name was in fact Beate Peter. Some time later, Lukas approached Rama with the situation that had foiled Kevin, to which Rama became incapacitated with laughter. Ever since the initial confusion, "Teutoberga" has been used as an affectionate term for the Peter matriarch.

Derivation of term

Appearing to be a nonsensical term, Kevin took it upon himself to search for the meaning of "Teutoberga". After a quick google search, Kevin discovered that Rama's idea was very likely a reference to the Battle of the Teutoburg Forest, a military conflict between Roman forces and allied Germanic tribes in 9 AD.
