The dominant tribe  around the lake was/is the Yao tribe. To them Nyasa means lake. Nyasa Province is a Mozambican province by the lake. 


World maps still show Lake Nyasa.

Thanks for the article on our name Malawi. My second time to read about mwenemuji. So it was real.
Nyasa name which we hated by association with colonial name is still very dear in Tz and Mozambique where they have whole province.
