Unfortunate or unlucky
Derived from the Old French surname Maloret, which stems from the word 'malheureux'. While the literal meaning is 'unfortunate', it has been used as a given name in English-speaking countries since the mid-20th century, often chosen for its melodic sound rather than its etymology.
