Etymology
From la cel -, deriving from la cel-pro *mosā, of uncertain origin; possibly ultimately from la ine-pro *mā- to stupefy in the sense of the river's tortuousness, cognate with gem-pro *masōną to confound, be weary, dream (modern en maze), cy mydu to vault, arch, non meis curvatura.Ferguson, Robert (1862): The River-names of Europe, p. 142
Or, Albrecht Greule writes that it could perhaps be from ine-pro *meh₂d- wet, whence la madeō to be wet and grc μεστός full.333b Maas
Compare also gem-pro *Masō (Dutch nl Maas), presumably from the same source.
