Archivesname meaning/origin
Hi, I am seeking any possible insight and information into the origin and meaning of the name Maalicht. From my own background in linguistics Maalicht strikes me as Celtic/Irish in origin and is certainly male in gender, but this is only speculation based upon its pronunciation. If anyone can help me in my quest, I'd be deeply grateful.

Maalicht . . .
Maalicht is definitely not Celtic or Irish (I have also done linguistics and I can't see how this could possibly look Celtic, sorry).
A quick Google search turned up mentions of the word maalicht on half-a-dozen Dutch sites. 'Licht' is 'light' in Dutch, but I haven't been able to decipher the meaning of the whole word. Perhaps one of our Dutch posters will be able to contribute more.
