It certainly not the second most popular name for girls in the Acores. If I were to guess it would be Anna or Margarida. I just checked my data base and out of 5000+ names I only found one.

The priest wrote 'baptizado', using the masculine tense. It threw me for a loop, so I crossed checked with the index. The name is clearly Mathide in the index. According to Wikipedia, it is the second most popular Portuguese female-name for girls, second only to Maria.
