About the name Elivane
Elivane combines the beginning Eli-, common in Brazilian names, with an ending in -vane. According to the Morfemário of the Dicionário de Nomes em Uso no Brasil, the origin of Eli- is uncertain: Machado links Eli to the biblical name, an abbreviation of Eliel, and the entry also suggests a fragment of names such as Eliane, Eliete and Eliezer. The ending -van is of doubtful origin in the same Morfemário, and Elivan appears among the Brazilian names with this element. For this reason, the meaning of the whole name is not known. In the 2022 Census, IBGE recorded 1,374 people named Elivane, with a median age of 37; they are almost always women. Proportionally, it is most common in Amazonas.
