Malaysia that they have named the girl Mallika meaning Queen
Just a guess, but as Malaysia has a large Muslim population, it might be a loanword from Arabic. The two Semitic languages could share a common root MLK 'king'.
Just looked up the Arabic for queen and it is malika.
Ceci n'est pas un seing.
