The surname Malaphant has its origins in Ireland, although it is not a common Irish surname. The name is believed to be of Anglo-Norman origin, brought to Ireland during the Norman invasion and subsequent settlement in the 12th century. The Anglo-Normans were descendants of the Normans who had originally invaded England in 1066.

The etymology of the name Malaphant is uncertain, but it is thought to be derived from the Old French word malefianc, meaning bad faith or treachery. This suggests that the original bearers of the surname may have been associated with acts of deceit or betrayal, although it is important to note that surnames often evolved from nicknames or descriptive terms and may not accurately reflect the character of the individuals who first bore the name.

Over time, the name Malaphant would have been anglicized, and variations in spelling and pronunciation would have occurred. The Irish branch of the Malaphant family likely emerged during this process of anglicization.

Today, individuals with the surname Malaphant of Irish descent can be found in various parts of Ireland, as well as in other English-speaking countries where Irish immigrants settled. The name serves as a reminder of the Norman influence on Ireland's history and the complex tapestry of Irish surnames.
