The Cimbri and Teutones were regarded as germanics by the romans, at least when Tacitus wrote Germania. He mentioned the area of North Germany/Denmark as the homes of these tribes. But it is possible that, when Caesar used the expression germani for a people , different from the celts, that the Invasions some 50 years before were seen in a different light.
I think that the crowds of peoples were not that homogene anymore when they met the romans, they already ploughed through modern Southern Germany, Austria and France for a couple of years. (" Hey guys, you want to join us? We´re on the road to nowhere, come on inside...!")
