Where this word comes from

First attested in 1493 (as Mole). From the name of the nearby lake Muola(an)järvi, possibly by elision from earlier *Muotolanjärvi (> *Muotla(a)njärvi) > Muola(an)järvi), from Muoto + -la. This theory is corroborated by nearby place names with Muotola. Muoto itself appears to be a pre-Christian given name, possibly from muoto.
