I always laugh about these names. They sound so funny:
Butteräugli = little butter eye
Brötli = little bread roll
Zöpfli = little plaited buttery bread
Gipfeli = little croissant
Güetzli = little home-made cookie
And they even look more funny without the umlauts. They seem a little bit broken without them. Therefore:
Brotli = little bread roll but slightly damaged
Zopfli = little plaited buttery bread but slightly damaged
and so on. But this is only my personal impression.
