All around the world, Malini (Malini , มาลินี , มาลิณี , among others...) is a common predominantly female, but scarcely masculine given name. The forename Malini is characteristic of Mauritius, where it is quite a common female name, U.S. Virgin Islands, and Thailand, where it is quite a common largely feminine, but uncommonly masculine name. In absolute terms, the name is most common in India, Thailand, and Sri Lanka. Much less frequently, Malini is the last name as well as the forename.
