The German name means Night-Moth.

moth is motte, falter means both butterfly and moth but rather the former.

Falter means moth and Schmetterling is butterfly

Motten essen Klamotten aus Wolle.
"Motten" in German are wool(-en clothing) eating insects...
I do not believe, a breeder would call such a beautiful and lovely smelling rose after that particular insect.

No, wouldn't, but the english and german meanings are different:
Schmetterling (butterfly) specifically used for Tagfalter (butterfly); but also includes Nachtfalter (moth).
The Motte (moth) which subsist on textiles, grains etc, are actually also subgroup of Schmetterlinge, but no German would call them butterflies.

Falter per definition means both, but rather a nachtfalter. As you have already written every night-active schmetterling is just a moth in english, which might have a negative connotation, as some are vermin. But does the group or even the word night-moth exist in english?

Is this plant very disease resistance or not?

When You look at the member ratings for this rose, two members consider this rose excellent, as for disease resistance.
I grow Himmelsauge (in commerce as) and people say it IS Russelliana and that rose is very healthy too.

"Grandmother's Hat" is NOT the same as 'Molly Sharman-Crawford'.

That was one of the several potential identifications proposed by Bob Edberg based upon illustrations in old rose publications. Unfortunately, we'll never know just who it is. I sent bud wood of it to The Netherlands years ago in hopes someone there would be able to compare it to similar roses there. It hasn't ever happened.

Kim,
Maybe I might shine some light on that in a personal message.
Once I got delivered 3 the same unknown roses instead of Gruss an Aachen.
I wasn't familiar with Grandmother's Hat... and today I looked at some photo's on HMF of it and for me the "false delivered Gruss an Aachen" and G.H. were similar. I gave those plants away.
Best Regards, Jay-Jay.

The rose exhibitor community has been showing Grandmothers Hat under the name “Cornet” for decades. “Found” roses are not allowed at most shows, and apparently someone did a comparison in the literature, and that was the best approximation to the found rose that is everywhere in California.

Another Bob Edberg effort. Bob's major effort was Limberlost Books. He found old colored plates he felt were sufficient matches for both of those identifications. And, it was based upon those plates he made them.

I live in Albuquerque, New Mexico. My back rose garden gets very hot. What I mean is over 100 degrees. Last year Eden was 1 year old and she was not happy in the heat. She produced fabulous blooms in May and then grew tall with laterals but not one singe bloom after that. This year I am going to put a heat shield cloth over her in the hopes this will help. Does anyone have any other thoughts? I was watering 2x a day because she became dehydrated. Thanks in advance for yur suggestions.

When established, Eden should be heat tolerant to that degree. It is described as "heat-tolerant".
Growing large canes uses energy. Bind those at an angle of 30-45 degrees... and the rose will make laterals on the canes that should flower.
As for watering: dig a hole near the roots, put in a big plant-pot. When pouring water in the pot, the water comes directly at the roots and the topsoil will not close off. Do that less often than twice a day and extend the intervals. Later on when established, remove the pot and close the hole.

The "pot-method" works well too with Zucchini's (Courgette) and Pumpkins. In the pot You can fertilize too. Not the roses, for Rosaceae do not like fertilizers directly at their roots. Strawberries as being part of the Rosaceae family also do not like fertilizers on their root-system.

PS: I looked up my own rating for heat tolerant for Eden. I rated the rose in its youth as fair.
Now, I would rate it as good to excellent. For it stands at a hot place.
