Ashaunti appears to be a modern variant of Ashanti, which derives from the name of a West African ethnic group and former empire located in what is now Ghana. The original Ashanti (or Asante) name refers to people united by war or because of war. The spelling variation with the added 'u' emerged in the United States primarily in the late 20th century, giving the traditional name a distinctive contemporary feel. The name gained some recognition following the rise to fame of the R&B singer Ashanti in the early 2000s, though this particular spelling variant remains relatively uncommon. Usage records show Ashaunti being given primarily to girls. The name represents how traditional geographical and cultural names can evolve with new spellings while maintaining their historical connections.

Briefly popular in New Zealand back in the 1930s, Valmai is a literary invention derived from the Welsh phrase fel Mai translating to "like May". It was created by the best selling Welsh author, Allen Raine, for her 1899 novel By Berwen Banks in which it is borne by the heroine.
 
The book and subsequent film were popular across the UK, Australia, South Africa, and New Zealand and as such, the name has since appeared in the forms of Valmae, Valmay, Felmai, and Falmai. While it is no longer used very often, it may appeal for someone honoring a Valerie or who want to celebrate the month of May.
