2024 is the newest list Istat (Istituto Nazionale di Statistica) has published. The 2025 list usually comes out around October 2026, and this page is updated when it does.

How this list is counted. Babies born in Italy in the year and registered as resident there, from Istat's births data. Every spelling is its own name (Nicolò and Niccolò are counted separately). Istat writes names in capitals with a final apostrophe for an accent (NICOLO'), shown here in normal case with the accent.
