What is the meaning of the name Ashuntie ?

Ashuntie is English in Origin.

Ashuntie is a modern English given name, a creative respelling of Ashanti/Asante, the Anglicized name for the Akan Asante people of Ghana. Asante is frequently analyzed in Twi as osa nti, "because of war," which yields the common meaning "warlike"; similarity to Sanskrit shanti "peace" is coincidental and etymologically unrelated.

As a personal name, Ashanti and its offshoots spread in the African diaspora during the late 20th century, especially in the United States, as expressions of West African heritage; the R&B singer Ashanti further raised its profile in the early 2000s. Ashuntie follows contemporary variant-spelling patterns. Related forms include Ashunti, A'Shunti, Ashuntae, Ashantee, Ashanty, Ashante/Ashanté, and the more traditional Ashanti and Asante (often unisex). Usage of Ashuntie remains uncommon but is readily recognized within this name family.
