Maliwan...

 

Probably not unusual there, but I heard for the first time today. Funny thing about it, is that is a common name here in Hawaii, also. Many Chinese here, so maybe Chinese, in origin?

[color:"red"] Maliwan...

[/color]

 

Mali is jasmine, wan/wana is skin so maliwan is skin like jasmine flower.

 

As far as I know, it is derived from Sanskrit (again) and I also heard that in Malay.

 

However, I am not Maliwan because I don't smell that good. :neener:
