Malachia vs. Malakaia vs. Girl version of Malachi?

What do you guys think of Malachia/Malakaia? It’s just like the boy name Malachi but with an A at the end and used for a girl. I recently thought of it and I can’t get it out of my head now. It’s pronounced Mal-uh-kye-uh. I feel like Malachia would be mispronounced that’s why I added the spelled Malakaia too.

Not that you asked, but I had to check this out. According to another site, Malachia is a traditional name. But it’s the Italian form of Malachi and therefore masculine. I love learning new names like this. Thanks. I suppose it would be pronounced more like, "mal-uh-KEE-uh," but it’s neat to know that it does really exist somewhere in the world.

All of that said, Malakaia gmv. Most people already know the name Kaïa. Good luck! :0)

I’ve never looked it up before but I could see Malachia being an Italian name now that you mention it!
Thanks!

Looking at it, in both forms, I would pronounce it Muh-LOCK-EE-uh. It looks quite horrid, imo.
