Best Answer

Since the Malacca Empire in 15th Century, "Tanah Melayu" and "Semenanjung Tanah Melayu" have been used unofficially in the Malaysian language, meaning "land of the Malay" or "peninsulas of the Malay".

The name Malaysia itself has no nicknames associated with it, English or Malaysian.

The term Suvarnabhumi ("Land of Gold"), is commonly thought to refer to the Southeast Asian Peninsula, including lower Burma and the Thai-Malay Peninsula.
