- It's, it's a Gaussian, so I don't know where it stops.
Examples
-
The normal distribution is also known as the Gaussian distribution due to its bell-shaped curve.
-
The voltage distribution displayed an excellent fit to a Gaussian, even though another form was expected.

Sometimes it's called a Gaussian distribution and the shape of the curve and its spread are basically measured by the standard deviation.
-
The data are simply Poisson, almost Gaussian distributed around the average, except for skew caused by the recent trend.

Morphology
Gaussian = Gaussian (semi-transparent) = Gauss + ian
The noun is a technical conversion of the adjective 'Gaussian', so the form is unchanged but the specialized mathematical noun sense is less fully predictable.
Etymology
A Gaussian is a 'bell-shaped' curve named after the mathematician Gauss. It shows how many things, like heights or test scores, are common in the middle and less common at the sides, which is why scientists call that curve a Gaussian.
