Chile

1 in 25,000

In Chile, 7 boys were registered as Aitor in 2021, every accent spelling counted together.
The count never rose above 7 in a year, too few to chart.

Not on the record in Puerto Rico, Canada, Ireland, New Zealand and Scotland: those registries withhold small counts, so rare uses may sit below their floors.

Not on the France record: nametree keeps spellings that reached 20 births in some year, so rarer uses are not shown. Not on the South Australia record for 1944 to 2017: that registry withholds nothing, so this spelling was not given there in those years.
