• Source: List of storms named Malakas

The name Malakas (Tagalog: [mɐlɐˈkas], mah-lə-KAHS) has been used for four tropical cyclones in the western north Pacific Ocean. The name was contributed by the Philippines and is a Filipino word meaning 'strong' or 'powerful'.

Tropical Storm Malakas (2004) (T0414, 17W) – weak tropical storm that drifted out to sea
Typhoon Malakas (2010) (T1012, 13W) – strong Category 2 typhoon that stayed out to sea
Typhoon Malakas (2016) (T1616, 18W, Gener) – powerful Category 4 typhoon that impacted Taiwan and Japan; one person died
Typhoon Malakas (2022) (T2201, 02W, Basyang) – extremely large early-season Category 4 typhoon which was downgraded to Category 3 in post-analysis that remained out to sea
Due to its pronunciation being identical to that of a profane Greek slang word, the name Malakas was announced to be retired and will no longer be used. In 2024, the name was replaced by Amuyao (a mountain in Mountain Province).
