@Vahagn Petrosyan: Isn't it related to մոզ (moz) + -ակ (-ak) (compare Central Kurdish مێشوولە (mêşûle, mosquito), from مێش (mêş, fly) + diminutive suffix -لە (-le))?--Calak (talk) 08:15, 1 March 2019 (UTC)Reply

@Calak: I expanded the etymology. I don't think մոծակ (mocak) is related with the Iranian etymon of մոզ (moz), because ծ (c) is unusual in Iranian borrowings. --Vahag (talk) 12:17, 1 March 2019 (UTC)Reply
