Salvatore by the numbers

In 2025, 5 babies in England and Wales were named Salvatore. In the US, 236 were, though that figure is from 2017, the most recent full year we hold.

For the size of the two countries, it is given several times more often in the US than in England and Wales.

Its American peak was 1,060 babies in 1927, so it is a 1920s name that has since fallen a long way.

At its height, in 1915, about 1 in 1,100 American boys born that year was called Salvatore.
