This name is of Brittonic origin (Breton / Welsh) and derives from the Old Irish and Proto-Celtic “máel / mael,” meaning “bald, bare, shaved, shorn, tonsured (chief, prince).” In the pre-Christian era, the meaning was “of a slave.” After the introduction of Christianity to Ireland, the name was changed as someone who is devoted (to God or a given saint).
