Mormaer Máel Coluim of Fife (1204–1228), or Maol Choluim anglicised as Malcolm, was one of the more obscure mormaers of Fife.
He married Matilda, the daughter of Gille Brigte, the mormaer of Strathearn. He is credited with the foundation of Culross Abbey. He was succeeded by his nephew Máel Coluim II upon his death, probably in 1228.
