Hello, I'm Matt Yeich, of Oklahoma. There seams to be some debate about the origins of the name Yeich, some say it's from some German Jesch or various variants. I would just like to throw my 2 cents in. While deployed to Iraq in '06 I was working with some foreign contractors from Turkey and one of them told me he knew a girl in Turkey named Yeich. He said she was Kurdish,and made it sound like it wasn't an unusual Kurdish name. I didn't get to talk to him beyond that, he didn't speak much english. Who knows, really.
