About the name Francimar

Francimar begins with Franci-, a formative that the Dicionário de Nomes em Uso no Brasil (Dictionary of Names in Use in Brazil) links to the Germanic frank, 'free', the same as in Francisco, and ends in -mar. For -mar, the dictionary points to three possible origins: the Germanic mar, 'glory, fame'; a fragment of Maria; or the noun mar, 'sea'. For that reason the meaning of the whole name is uncertain. It is used for both sexes, with more male records. In the 2022 Census, IBGE recorded 11,031 people named Francimar, with a median age of 43.
