The etymology and gender of the genus name is unclear. The most likely
explanation is that the name is intended to refer to the fact that the
genus has a similar body shape as flies in the genus Norellia and
therefore means "Norellia-like body". Because the greek "soma" is of
neutral gender, the genus name has to be considered a neutrum as well.
