[Facts] Malala?
What is the meaning of Malala, as in the Pakistani girl Malala Yousafzai?I was surprised not to see it listed here, not even when searching the message board comments.Thanks!

I googled it and it seems to mean "sadness" or "grief-stricken". Ick. I had hoped for "strong girl" or "heroine"...http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Malala_Yousafzai

Awwww, agreed, not a good meaning at all!I had seen that but never on a real naming site, so didn't know if the meaning was legitimate.
