Maliek Origin and Meaning

The name Maliek is a boy's name.

Maliek is a masculine name that appears to be a variant spelling of Malik, which has Arabic origins meaning "king" or "sovereign." This alternative spelling adds a distinctive touch while maintaining the original pronunciation. Maliek emerged as a more uncommon variation as parents sought ways to personalize traditional names. The name carries the strength and dignity associated with leadership inherent in its meaning. In various Muslim cultures, Malik is one of the 99 names of Allah, giving it religious significance. While less common than the traditional spelling, Maliek offers a way to honor Arabic or Islamic heritage with a slightly unique presentation that stands out in Western contexts.
