The Wikipedia articles that I gave you explain that:
~ Wends seem to derive their name from Wendland
~ The name of Wendland seems to be connected to the Vandals

The dictionary.com site claims that "wend" is derived from the German Wende -> Middle High German Winde/Wende -> Old High German Winid. And they direct you to check up the meaning of "wen" in Indo-European Roots.

Or, to put it shortly, bluntly and rather rudely, because I am stuck at work at 6:40 pm -- I pointed you to what I know, but I am not going to do your research for you!
