You do ask not just because Maru gave you several infractions in the past do you?

Alright then...the meaning of marudashi (丸出し) is more or less:
to be exposed/to be naked
Actually to be more precise, it doesn't necessarily mean to be naked.
To be exposed, yes.
丸 means round or ship.
出 is typically used for exit, but means to leave/exit
So I don't know how it came to this meaning but whatever.
Marudashi is more likely to mean bare; exposed; or undisguised.
Also, we don't know the kanji to the name itself therefore it is pretty hard to really interpret what the name MaruDashi really means.
Maru and Moro's name [マル＆モロ] from what Ive seen [the reference section of the manga] is described as 'exposing oneself in public' and is supposed to be a bit of a pun to the 'xxx' part of the series's title [xxxHolic].
I cant seem to find the official writing for just Maru with the last name Dashi @_@
Maru - まる Dashi - 出し
Maru is a hiragana-only name, it's not one of those kanji names.
Interestingly enough, Enamdict gives Dashi some okurigana, which I've never seen seen on a name before. Usually it's only kanji or only hiragana.
i think we shed enough light on this now *closed*
