In summary

From Middle Dutch mossel, mussel, from Old French moule, mousle, muisle, from Latin mūsculus. Note that Middle Dutch also attests a form mosschele (with various spelling variants), which is not directly ancestral to this Modern Dutch form and which is said to be an older loanword directly from Latin: see Proto-West Germanic *muskulā.
