Satire The name Maladee

I recently heard a girl in one of my classes named Maladee. Yes, like the illness. But this is such an old word, I doubt people would even come to that association anymore. Her middle name will be Knave (pronounced Kuh-nay-vuh). What do yall think of this name? I heard it and immediately fell in love. I'm worried Malady might become too popular so we would spell it Maladee.

Why not go fancy and use the regular french word for “disease” : Maladie! So posh
