Malla gave birth 2 months before Sirius was put in prison. She gave Saphira her name to hide her lineage, especially since Saphira is a Black. Malla didn't want her daughter to suffer because of the things people thought about her father.
Saphira hates hiding who her family is, but knows it's for the best, and wouldn't go against her mothers wishes.
