What country name is a homonym for a word meaning loud moans or howls?

Some people would say that "Wales" is a homonym for "wails", but they would be mistaken. The definition of "homonym", according to Webster's Universal Collegiate Dictionary, is:
"a word the same as another in sound and spelling but different in meaning, as chase 'to pursue' and chase 'to ornament metal'. "
The word "wail" is defined as "to utter a prolonged, mournful cry", or "loud moans or howls". Although the country name "Wales" and the word "wails" sound the same and have different meanings they are not homonyms, because they are not spelled the same.
At this time, there is probably no known English word which would qualify as a homonym for "wails". There may be, however, a country name homonym for a non-English equivalent of "wails".
