Niccolò is an Italian male given name, derived from the Greek Nikolaos meaning "Victor of people" or "People's champion".
There are several male variations of the name: Nicolò, Niccolò, Nicolas, and Nicola. The female equivalent is Nicole. The female diminutive Nicoletta is used although seldom. Rarely, the letter "C" can be followed by a "H" (ex. Nicholas). As the letter "K" is not part of the Italian alphabet, versions where "C" is replaced by "K" are even rarer.
