Malie is Hawaiian in Origin.
Malie is most commonly explained through Polynesian languages: in Hawaiian, mālie means “calm, gentle, serene,” a word used of quiet seas and soft winds; in Samoan and Tongan, mālie conveys “good, pleasing” or “excellent.” As a given name it appears in Hawaii and other Pacific communities, sometimes written Mālie to show the long vowel.
Beyond the Pacific, Malie is used in English-speaking countries as a streamlined variant of Malia - the Hawaiian form of Mary - connecting it to the debated Hebrew meanings “beloved,” “wished‑for child,” or “sea of bitterness.” It can also arise as a nickname for Amalia/Amalie (from Germanic elements meaning “work, vigor”). Documented in U.S. records mainly from the late 20th century onward, the name remains uncommon. Variants and related forms include Mālie, Malia, Maliah, Malea/Maleah, Amalia/Amalie, and the short form Mali; similar-by-sound French Breton Maélie/Maëlie is etymologically separate.
