I think these are the correct names of the aspell dictionaries. "German8" is clearly an ispell name.
When you have ispell/aspell/flyspell/whatever magic spell correctly configured, you should be able to manually invoke
M-x ispell-change-dictionary RET
(I *only* use ispell; this works) or whatever command is available for flyspell and then press TAB to see in a *Completions* buffer the dictionaries to choose one from. If this fails, then you have to set up a bit more, for example the path to the directory with the dictionaries.
To share one user init file between different systems you can use the variable system-type to distinguish between the systems.
