# Claudio Moneta

Claudio Moneta (Milan, 20 May 1967) is an Italian voice actor.
He voiced multiple characters in the internationally-coproduced animated series Monster Allergy and is well known in Italy for dubbing the voice of the title character in the Italian language version of the Nickelodeon animated series SpongeBob SquarePants and also Barney Stinson, portrayed by Neil Patrick Harris, in the sit-com How I Met Your Mother, Kakashi Hatake in Naruto and Naruto: Shippuden, Shadow the Hedgehog in the Sonic franchise, and Son Goku in Dragon Ball Super. The role of Kakashi Hatake was temporarily filled by fellow voice actor Gianluca Iacono between 2010 and 2011, due to a motorbike incident suffered by Moneta. He was also replaced in Mass Effect 2 because of that accident as well.
He has worked at Merak Film, Deneb Film, and other dubbing studios in Italy. Moneta is also the network announcer for the Mediaset owned channel Hiro.
