About the name Edneide
The Morfemário (morpheme list) of the Dicionário de Nomes em Uso no Brasil (Dictionary of Names in Use in Brazil) links names beginning with Ed-, among them Edna, to Anglo-Saxon ead, 'wealth, riches'. The ending -neide matches that of Neide, which the dictionary, citing Machado (1981), derives from Greek Neis, passing through Latin to 'naiad'. The specific formation of Edneide is not documented, so the meaning of the whole name is left undefined. In the 2022 Census, IBGE recorded 6,801 people named Edneide. The 1970s and 1980s account for the largest number of women born with this name, which is almost always female. Proportionally, it is most common in Alagoas.
