Malaisia is of Latin origin and its meaning is often associated with bad luck or misfortune. It was once popular as a given name, particularly among Roman Catholics who believed it to be an appropriate name for girls born on a Friday. However, due to its negative connotations, the use of Malaisia has significantly declined over time.
The name Malaysia experienced no growth from 2013 to 2014, with both years recording five births each. There was also no change between these periods and 2019, which saw another five births. Over this span of six years, the total number of babies named Malaysia is fifteen.
