About the name Jucinei
The Morfemário of the Dicionário de Nomes em Uso no Brasil (Dictionary of Names in Use in Brazil) describes Juci- as a name-forming element of unknown origin, found in names such as Juciara and Jucileide, and -nei as an ending linked to the French Ney, which perhaps comes from the German neu, 'new'. The combination of the two in Jucinei is not documented, so the origin of the spelling is uncertain and the name has no meaning known with certainty. In the 2022 Census, IBGE recorded 2,271 people named Jucinei, with a median age of 40. The records are concentrated in the 1960s to 1980s, and there are more male than female records. Proportionally, it is most common in Mato Grosso.
