About Claudio

Claudio, a most appealing Italian name, is featured in not one, but two Shakespearean plays, ,Measure for Measure and Much Ado About Nothing. While "lame" is the most widely acknowledged meaning, some etymologists theorize that the name may relate to the word for enclosure or clause, an alternate meaning that may appeal to a child with a form of this otherwise-attractive name.

Claudio is also given to girls.

Pronounced CLOW-dee-oh.

As of October 2026, Claudio ranked #8009 in US births in 1990 SSA.
