Origin: Hawaiian

Meaning: Peace

When it comes to Hawaiian names, guiding baby in the right direction is the aim of the game. Malu, a gorgeous girl’s name meaning “peace,” is simply perfect for reminding your little darling of the dove they are. Though Malu is inextricably linked to the islands, it can be an alternative for other names common around the world, like Mary-Louise, Maria-Luisa, or Maria-Lourdes. Malou is another popular spelling variation to consider, but nothing heals the heart like Malu.
