History References
The name Annalmalai is notably associated with the revered Saivite saint and poet Arunagirinathar, whose full name was Thiruvannamalaiyar Annamalaiyar. However, the specific compound name "Annalmalai" itself is not as commonly found as a standalone personal name in historical records or literature compared to its constituent parts or related names like Annamalai. It is more likely to be a descriptive or symbolic appellation rather than a widespread given name.
