Origin: Ghanaian

Meaning: Thank you, gratitude; God is gracious

You’ll be thanking God every day for baby, so why not consider a name that encompasses your gratitude perfectly? Shauntae is a beautiful, feminine name of Ghanaian origin. It is a variation of the name Ashanti, which also has its roots in West Africa. Meaning “thank you” or “gratitude,” this lovely choice is sure to always remind baby how grateful you are for their presence. Shauntae might also be connected to the Irish name Shauna, which can be traced back to Hebrew, where it means “God is gracious.” While these two definitions seemingly come from opposite ends of the world geographically, they certainly go hand-in-hand and make for a gorgeous and meaningful choice.
