Sante

Not quite so popular as its alternative forms, Santo, Santi, and Santino, nor as frequently used as the longer Santiago, this saintly Italian name has nevertheless been borne by classic painters, Sante Cattaneo, Sante Monachesi, and Sante Vandi. Coinciding (visually, at least) with the French word for "health", Sante might have been neglected owing to its connection to Sante Kimes, an American (female) criminal.

Pronounced SAHN-tay.

As of October 2026, Sante ranked #10498 for boys in US births in 2025 SSA, peaked at #3236 for boys in 1933.
