See https://data.iana.org/time-zones/tz-link.html for details about the naming. Quote from there: "Timezones are typically identified by continent or ocean and then by the name of the largest city within the region containing the clocks."
This kind of change must be done via the upstream project instead of only in Ubuntu. Please contact upstream via the <email address hidden> mailing list. Expect them to ask for evidence. Having BrasÃlia time publicly used might convince them to change this timezone name.
I am marking this bug as "Won't Fix" (as in not deviating from the upstream naming) for the Ubuntu tzdata package. Upstream changes will trickle down to Ubuntu.
