About the name Rosinaldo
The Morfemário of the Dicionário de Nomes em Uso no Brasil lists Rosinaldo among the Brazilian names formed with Rosi-, taken from Rosa or Rose (from Latin rosae, 'rose'), and among those formed with -naldo. This second element is of Germanic origin, and the dictionary points to more than one possible etymon: walt/wald, 'one who rules', hard, 'strong', bald, 'bold, daring', or old, 'old'. The dictionary also notes the potential of these formative elements for creating new names, without giving a meaning to the name as a whole.
