I look forward to a more-informed opinion, but my SWAG would be "from Mozambique" or similar.

Since mine was an unconfirmed, educated guess, I can't give you a definitive answer (as to its origin).The connection that I noticed was the |-ANI| ending is a Latinate plural form of |-AN|, "person of or from [base name]." That would make MOUSSAMB- to be the base name in question. I noticed a similarity to the country name, MOZAMBIQUE, which can be broken into MOZAMB- + -IQUE, the French equivalent to the suffix, |-IC|.
