German boy unaffected by upset (4)
I believe the answer is:
otto
'german' is the definition.
(common German name)
I can't explain the remainder of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for otto that I've seen before include "Rose petal oil; Bismarck's name" , "-- Klemperer, conductor" , "Palindromic German male Christian name" , "____ Preminger, US film director born in Austria" , "Palindromic fragrance" .)
