About the name Deusamar
The origin of the spelling Deusamar is uncertain. The Dicionário de Nomes em Uso no Brasil (Dictionary of Names in Use in Brazil) analyzes Deusa as Deus + -a and Deusdete as Deus + -dete, and the Morfemário says the ending -mar may have more than one origin: the Germanic mar, 'glory, fame', a splinter of Maria, or the noun mar (Portuguese for 'sea').
