Is Claudio a boy’s or a girl’s name?

Claudio has been given almost only to boys: 27 girls in 114 years of records.

Girls and boys named Claudio: the SSA national file counts each sex separately.

How many people are named Claudio, and how old are they?

4,610 alive in 2026, estimated

That is 84% of the 5,502 Americans ever recorded as Claudio. The median Claudio alive today is 33 years old; half are between 21 and 48.

The 2020 Census counted 14,063 people named Claudio (152 women and girls, 13,911 men and boys). SSA’s births carried forward to Census day, April 1, 2020, predict 4,542 born in the U.S. The Census count is 3.1 times that prediction. Possible reasons: the Census counts people born abroad, whom SSA’s files leave out, and it records the name people give, which SSA may have recorded under another spelling or as part of a compound name.

An estimate, not a count. SSA’s files count people born in the United States who received a Social Security number, so anyone born abroad is not in them; before 1937 most people got a number as adults, and their survival is counted from that age.

Living estimate: SSA births carried forward with the survival rates in SSA’s cohort life tables (2024 Trustees Report) for each birth year and sex. How the estimate is made. Count: Census Bureau, first names in the 2020 Census (released April 14, 2026; names reported 100 or more times, with the Bureau’s disclosure-avoidance adjustment).

Relative to its national share, Claudio is most over-represented in Texas: since 1910 it was given 2.6 times as often there as its national share each year would predict.

Texas2.60×
New York1.59×
Florida1.07×

Bars start at 1× (as often as the national share predicts).

States: SSA state file, 1910-2025, published May 8, 2026; births count girls and boys together, and the rank is among boys’ names in the state in 2025. The file leaves out any state and year with fewer than 5 babies of the name, so small states are undercounted; each ratio compares the state’s births of Claudio with the births its national share predicts year by year, for states with at least 100 births of the name.

Names spelled alike

Of these 3 names spelled alike, given to 98,120 babies since 1880, Claudio is the second most given (5.6% of them). In 2025 it was given to 30 of their 70 babies (43%), again the second most given.
