Probably the Ostrogoths. The Visigoths came and went, the Ostrogoths stayed.
Though The Visigoths were way more based.

The Visigoths settled in Spain and established the ruling class there. They were pushed back by the arabs in the late 7th century but remained in the north west. They eventually pushed the moors south.
The Ostrogoths occupied Italy and were almost immediately replaced by the Lombards...

The ostrogoths did practically nothing since Ostrogothic Italy was pretty short. Theodoric the Great was better than any visigothic ruler, that's true, but the kingdom barely survived after his death.
The visigoths ruled in Iberia for centuries and (christian) medieval spanish identity was built around the memory of visigothic spain.
