About the name Wanderly
The Morfemário of the Dicionário de Nomes em Uso no Brasil (Dictionary of Names in Use in Brazil) describes the name-forming elements -derlei, -derley and -derli as probably taken from Vanderlei, which Wiktionary gives as a name of Dutch origin, from van der Leij. Wiktionary also records Wanderley as an alternative form of Vanderlei, but no source documents Wanderly and Wanderli, and the origin of these spellings is uncertain. In the 2022 Census, IBGE recorded 1,336 people named Wanderly and 934 named Wanderli, with median ages of 52 and 53. The records are concentrated in the 1950s to 1970s, and the name appears in both sexes, with more male records.
