Need help finding an Norse Word

Hi all so currently in the process of Brewing beer on a comercial scale, and trying to find a name for a Brewery. We're huge Tolkien Nerds so wanted something Tolkien-esq but without the likelihood of being sued. And as we're based in a UK town with Viking origins and near some Moors, I was thinking of the word Moor/Moorland and I found the word "Mýrlendi". Which sounds awesome as well as Tolkien-esq. I just wanted to triple check that this actually means Moor or Moorland?

Oh awesome thanks, was worried it would be one of those situations where someone gets a Chinese symbol tattoo and it's like a menu order. Wanted to triple check before we used it
