Version 1.1, updated 25 March 2003
In the rare cases where two given names are used, I have included those two names in the lists in this article as a single unit (for example, Giovanni Batista). In most cases, these names are compound given names that eventually evolved into contracted forms. In the case of Giovanni Batista, this compound given name evolved into the form Giovanbatista, and, later, into Gianbatista. Because of the strength of this trend, we cannot assume that any two given names would have been randomly combined in a name. For this reason, I have included the instances of two given names in this lists in this article in the same way a single given name would be listed.
The given names that only appear in either their full form or a contracted form are Cola Antonio, Giovanni Agniolo / Giovaniglio, Giovanni Antonio, Giovanni Batista / Giovanbatista, Giovanni Francesco, Guido Antonio, and Pietro Paolo.
In regards to the statistics in this article, there are five men who are actually included in the count of given names twice. In the case of these five, they are listed twice because they each have two given names and are occasionally referred to by only one of them. Specifically:
The name Antonio is omitted from the name of Antonio Bernardino da San Gemignano in two out of three cases. Therefore, he is included in the count under both Antonio Bernardino and under Bernardino.
The name Antonio is omitted from the name of Antonio Coronato de Plachetis in four out of five cases. Therefore, he is included in the count under both Antonio Coronato and under Coronato.
The name Antonio is omitted from the name of Antonio Troyolo de Marchia in three out of four cases. Therefore, he is included in the count under both Antonio Troyolo and under Troyolo.
The name Marcho is omitted from the name of Marcho Antonio di Santo Ambrogio in two out of three cases. Therefore, he is included in the count under both Marcho Antonio and under Antonio. In the case of the name Marcho Antonio, it is definitely a compound given name. It appears in the Tratte as Marcantonio.
The name Emilio is omitted from the name of Paolo Emilio de Albertonibus in two out of five cases. Therefore, he is included in the count under both Paolo Emilio and under Paolo.
