See מוהל on Wiktionary

Noun [Hebrew]

IPA: /moˈ(h)el/ [Modern-Israeli-Hebrew] Forms: מוֹהֵל [canonical], mohél [romanization], מוֹהֲלִים [indefinite, plural], מוֹהֵל־ [construct, singular], מוֹהֲלֵי־ [construct, plural], מוֹהֶלֶת [feminine]
Etymology: Present participle of מָהַל (mahál, “to cirumcise”). First appearing in Tosefta Berakhot 6:12 (according to the Lieberman edition) during late antiquity. The choice to use the participle of מָהַל rather than מָל is likely due to Aramaic influence, where מְהַל is more commonly used for circumcision.

The choice to use the participle of מָהַל rather than מָל is likely due to Aramaic influence, where מְהַל is more commonly used for circumcision.",
