The origin of this name is still today quite uncertain. Over time, the names' elements have been superimposed, making it difficult to separate the names in different elements. The theories include: 1) Any name beginning with Mal- / Mál- / Mål-) plus “*friþuz” (peace, tranquility, friendship). 2) A variant form of the name element “malm,” from the Old Norse “malmr,” meaning “ore.” 3) From the Old Norse “mál,” which in turn derives from the Proto-Germanic “*maþlą,” meaning “speech, language, talk.” 4) From Old Norse “mál,” which in turn derives from the Proto-Germanic “*mēlą,” meaning “measurements, a size, dimensions.” Malmfred of Kyiv (~1095/1102–1137) was a Russian princess and a medieval Norwegian and Danish queen consort, wife first to King Sigurd I of Norway, and second to king Eric II of Denmark.
