Orçamento is masculine because it derives from the Latin "ōrāmentum" (a thing for speaking/praying), which used the masculine suffix "-mentum" that consistently produces masculine nouns in Portuguese and Romance languages generally. The Latin root "ōrāre" (to speak/pray) combined with this masculine-forming suffix established its gender, which has been retained throughout Portuguese's evolution.
