Across the world, Malan (Malan 
, 马兰 
, Малан 
) is a widespread principally feminine, but very infrequently male first name. The first name Malan is habitual in India, where it is quite a common female name, Sri Lanka, where it is quite a rare male name, and Guinea-Bissau. Measured by absolute frequency, it most frequently occurs in India, Nigeria, and Sri Lanka. Very seldom, Malan is the last name as well as the forename.
