Irish: name of an Irish king who defeated the Norse invaders in an important battle. His baptismal name was Maoileachlainn ‘devotee of St Seachnall’ or Secundinus, but in medieval sources telling of his life this has already been altered to coincide with that of the biblical prophet generally known in English as Malachi. Malachi was the last of the twelve minor prophets of the Old Testament; he foretold the coming of Christ and his name means, appropriately, ‘my messenger’ in Hebrew.
