The genus name of Schunkea is in honour of Vital Schunk (fl. 1990–1999), co-collector of this plant in southeast Brazil.[2] The Latin specific epithet of vierlingii refers to botanist and plant collector, Gerhard Vierling (fl. 2016), who later published Seegeriella senghasiana Vierling in OrchideenJ.
