In 2025, it ranked 3379th, with about 1 in 50,238 baby boys receiving the name.

Artemio remains a distinctive choice that connects a child to classical mythology without feeling overly trendy.
Artemio is the Spanish and Italian form of the Greek name Artemios, derived from Artemis, the Olympian goddess of the hunt, wilderness, and the moon. The name was borne by several early Christian saints, including Saint Artemius of Antioch, a fourth-century Roman general and martyr. It has been used in Spanish- and Italian-speaking communities for centuries, though it remains relatively uncommon.
