Monte Baldo does not really sound as if it has its roots in Latin?

Not enough roots of any kind, I think.

Mountains are sometimes regarded as having roots, but to dwell on that would
mean going into a field between geology on the one hand and literature on
the other. I think the tension between botany on the one hand and Latin on
the other is quite enough, without adding further complications?

Not enough roots of any kind, I think.
