Yes, the word means both gardener and garland maker. It is also a name of the Goddess Durga. There it means 'garlanded (with garlands made from human skulls)', as in this picture: http://timepiece.shubhkaamna.com/gifs/durga.jpg

My ideas:
Malina
Malie
Malin
Malinda
Melanie
Melina
Mellony
Malinali ('dry grass' in Aztec)
Now, a website claims that Malini means "a cluster of notes" in Hindustani, but it (the site) looks quite odd.
Another says it means "gardender" in Hindi (probably gardener??). Another one thinks it's "string of pearls".
I hope it helps!
