About the name Ivanilza
The structure of Ivanilza is not documented, so the meaning as a full name is unknown. The Morfemário of the Dicionário de Nomes em Uso no Brasil (Dictionary of Names in Use in Brazil) describes the ending -ilza as of uncertain origin, perhaps from the given name Ilza, and a parallel entry probably links it to the Germanic Elsa and Else. The dictionary analyzes the similar name Ivanilda as Ivan- + -ilda, and Ivan as a Russian form that corresponds to João. In the 2022 Census, IBGE recorded 1,966 people named Ivanilza, with a median age of 45; the name is almost always female and was recorded most among people born in the 1970s.
