Field notes
The homepage presents a first-name lookup and sample queries including Maria, Helena, Enzo, Raimundo, and Nalva. It says the census records first names of people alive on August 1, 2022, groups accented and unaccented spellings, and can report decade and place. The page gives Maria as 12,284,478 people and distinguishes that census snapshot from Arpen-Brasil's daily registry data, noting that post-birth registrations can cause totals to rise for several weeks.
