About the name Ediomar
The origin of the spelling Ediomar is uncertain. The Morfemário of the Dicionário de Nomes em Uso no Brasil describes -mar as a formative used for men and women, with three possible origins (Germanic -mar, 'glory, fame'; a splinter of Maria; or the noun mar, the Portuguese word for 'sea'), and lists Eliomar among the Brazilian names with it; the beginning Edi- matches the formative Ed-/Edi-/Ede-, from Germanic ead ('wealth, possessions'), but the name itself is not analyzed. In the 2022 Census, IBGE recorded 947 people named Ediomar, mainly men, and the 1970s have the most records.
