There was a post about this name a few weeks back.
It seems to be a version of the Name Hilma. There are quite a few names in Brasil with or without a (silent) H as initial: Heloísa - Eloísa; Hélio - Élio; Henrique - Enrique; Hilda - Ilda ...
Maybe it was brought there by german and pomeranian migrants (it was most popular in Espírito Santo).
