The Galatis family or Galati (Greek: Γαλάτης; Venetian Italian: Galati) is an old noble family from the island of Ithaca, Greece, who came to prominence as local nobles first under the rule of the Tocco family in the 14th and 15th centuries. The family is later listed in both the 1803 and 1804 catalogues of nobles on the island. Among the members of the family are the pre-revolutionary figure Nikolaos Galatis (1792-1819) and the Athenian fashion designer Giannis Galatis.
