Malibu is the perfect name for your ocean-loving newborn. Typically used as a girl’s name, it derives from Native American languages. It is argued that Malibu is a combination of mali and wu, meaning “where the mountains meet the sea,” or that it could also be associated with the Chumash term Humaliwo, meaning “where the surf sounds loudly.” Nevertheless, Malibu is a name that evokes visions of breathtaking sunsets and lazing about on sandy beaches.
