About the name Adeilson
Adeilson has the beginning Ade- and the ending -ilson, two formatives that the Morfemário of the Dicionário de Nomes em Uso no Brasil (Dictionary of Names in Use in Brazil) records in Brazilian names. Ade- is probably a fragment of traditional given names such as Aderbal, and -ilson a fragment of Nilson and Wilson, English surnames that mean 'son of Nill' and 'son of Will'. The same dictionary analyzes Deilson as De- + -ilson and records Adeilsom and Adeylson as spelling variants of Adeilson. In the 2022 Census, IBGE recorded 14,837 people named Adeilson, with a median age of 37. The name is almost always male and, proportionally, it is most common in Alagoas.
