About the name Rosimara
The Dicionário de Nomes em Uso no Brasil (Dictionary of Names in Use in Brazil) lists Rosimara among the names formed with Rosi-, a fragment of Rosa and Rose, linked to Latin rosae, and among those formed with -mara, and records Rosymara and Rozimara as spelling variants. For -mara the source points to at least three possible origins: a hypocoristic of Maria, Hebrew marah ('bitterness') or Tupi marã ('bad'). Since the origin of -mara is not settled, the meaning of the whole name is not known. In the 2022 Census, IBGE recorded 6,298 people named Rosimara, almost always women, with the largest number among those born in the 1970s. Proportionally, it is most common in Amazonas.
