As a personal name, Malih may be chosen for its phonetic qualities or for associations within a family or community. Etymology and meaning are not uniform across cultures; in some contexts, similar-sounding forms are connected to words meaning "good" or "handsome," while in others they may be inherited from longer traditional names. The name is usually passed down within families and can appear as part of compound given names or as a surname.
