Barangay Maharlika was created by virtue of Presidential Decree (P.D.) No. 557 dated September 21, 1974, and pursuant to P.D. 86 and P.D. 210, wherein existing barrios in Quezon City were converted to barangays. Moreover, Executive Order (E.O.) No. 22 issued by the late Mayor Norberto S. Amoranto outlined the Barangays created under P.D. 86 and P.D. 210, among them, Barangay Maharlika. E.O. 22 further specified that the territorial jurisdiction of each Barangay shall be the same territory presently covered by each either as a former barrio or as barangays operating as zones.
The late Arsenio Dizon, the first Barangay Captain of Maharlika, came up with the name of the new Barangay. Maharlika is a person of royal or noble birth, or in a more general sense, somebody who is great, honorable, and superior mentally, physically, and morally. The barangay symbol is that of a native warrior brandishing a kris or sword, much like the first Filipino hero, Lapu-Lapu.
