Etaoin,
I would love to be able to say that my name is Polynesian, more precisely originating from the Hawaiian islands,; unfortunately the correct spelling of the name in their language is Paloni with the meaning of Goddess of the Sea or Ocean. Thus, as you can see, it is not the same name.
Another distinguishing feature of my name is the vowel make up. It has a very distinct linguistic pronunciation, also making it difficult to locate the exact meaning or root(s) there of.
As for my name originating in India or there being a town in India with my name; the internet is notorious for having misspelt words. If you do a search on my name “pailani” it brings up a supposed city with my name, unfortunately the actual spelling of that city is “Pilani” which as you can see is not the same.
So in closing you can see that it would be easy to assume that it is of either language or origin.
