Mallon

As a first name inspired by a last name, Mallon is considered to have gender-neutral usage. Stemming from Irish origins, Mallon has two meanings for your kiddo to one day explore. As a variant of Malone, it derives from the Irish last name Ó Maoil Eoin and means "descendant of a disciple of Saint John," carrying a faithful air. This moniker is also an Anglicization of the Irish surname Ó Mealláin, which comes from the word meall and means "pleasant." As a diminutive of this word, Mealláin can be interpreted as "little pleasant one," bringing Mallon to a whole new level of sweetness. Mallon is smooth and rich thanks to its wonderful blend of vowels and consonants, which create a musical name for baby to bear.
