To preface, I am talking out my ass because I know nothing on the following topic really. This is purely from just having fun looking for stuff, and it is from what I half remember, i.e. I'm sure the work had more going on that just listing biblical places but it's all I remember now...
I found an entry in a 1241 Latin work listing places (+ things?) from the bible in alphabetical order
One of the entries was "M oladab", the space isn't real but just how they wrote it, most "m words" were like this.
It is a spelling variation of "Moladah" - You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view.
It is obviously purely speculation, but I wondered if the corrupted word took inspiration from this.. I think it's closer than "agla" anyway and "Maria" "+" both hint at a Christian influence.

Ignore the translation on the left it's pretty bad, but I'm pretty sure this is "M oladab" and not "M oladah" due to other "h" on the page. Latin folk correct if wrong please.
