What did the German site say its origin was? Cyneburga is Old English, like this website says. Hopefully someone can answer the rest of your questions better, but I do know that Old English comes from Germanic (then had a lot of Old French influence). German is also from Germanic, just on a different branch. If you look at a language tree it makes more sense. Like one of these:
