I would like to know any, shall I say, "out-of-use" german words that may or may not carry connotations, like 'jawohl' or 'Fräulein'. And of course words that would sound somehow weird nowadays. I am doing this simply for fun and knowledge.

Jawohl. simply means Got it. It's not outdated. You may hear
Jawoll!
quite often if one acknowlegdes something which went well. For example, commenting a good move in a football game.
Fräulein is not used any more to address unmarried women. You may still hear it when parents address their daughter.
Ach, das Fräulein will wieder mal verreisen. – Ja, Papa!

There is such a lot of these words. I'll provide you the first two that came into my mind: wohlfeil and feilbieten. Enjoy :-)
