It is the element -moughan- which is obscure in this case. The name appears on 16th century maps as Slew Mogh or just Mogh.   Slievemoughanmore is the 396th highest place in Ireland.

Great views for minimal effort
by paulocon  23 Aug 2010
Started from Deers Meadow and climbed Slievemoughanmore after Pigeon Rock following Batts Wall. The summit is around 150 metres away from the wall and is marked by two cairns, neither of which appear to mark the actual summit proper. Great views across to Spelga Dam, Cock and Hen Mountain and onto Meelbeg, Meelmore and Bearnagh. Linkback: https://mountainviews.ie/summit/344/comment/6049/
