About the name Edivania
The Dicionário de Nomes em Uso no Brasil records Edivania as a spelling variant of Edvania, a name formed by Ed- + vania. In the Morfemário of the same dictionary, Ed- (or Edi-) comes from the Anglo-Saxon ead, 'wealth, goods', and the I between the D and the V follows Portuguese pronunciation. Vânia, according to Machado as cited in the dictionary, is the feminine of Vânio, and the Morfemário gathers different hypotheses for the element Van-; for that reason, the meaning of the name as a whole is uncertain. In the 2022 Census, IBGE recorded 23,073 people named Edivania, with a median age of 38; proportionally, the name is most common in Sergipe.
