The name Emmaculate

The name on my birth certificate is Emmaculate. I am not sure if it was a typo, but i love it that way. I have been looking up name meanings and apparently it has no meaning.

What does Emmaculate mean?
Emma means universal/whole. What does the -culate suffix mean? I have seen it used in words like calculate, emasculate, or speculate.


Solution 1:

I think it may be a mistake for immaculate (or deliberately spelled that way to resemble the name Emma). Immaculate means spotless (literally or metaphorically), from the Latin macula, a spot.

I believe the suffix is -ate, and the other words you quote also have roots that happen to have the syllable -cul- in them.
