Why do Brazilian athletes tend to go by a single name?

Most athletes you come across go by two names—LeBron James, Tom Brady, Harry Kane, whomever you like. Brazilians, though, do it differently. They tend to go by just a single name, and as I've begun watching more and more soccer, I've wondered why. I think of people like Marta, Ronaldinho, Neymar, Vinicius Jr, Raphinha, the list goes on.
Is there a reason why this is a thing? Is going by a single name something that Brazilians do colloquially?
