Dear Richard,
sitting in front of a German keyboard, writing
Gödel
seems to be the obvious solution for modern LaTeX and Emacs versions - you
could define some shortcut to insert the appropriate Unicode character into
your text (as your keyboard probably does not feature a "ö" key), or copy/paste
the Umlauts from another Emacs file as necessary. If you do not need it very
often, this might be a reasonable alternative.
Warm regards,
Stefan
