Does anyone know the Christian name of submarine commander Capitano de Corbetta Emiliani of the Pier Capponi in September 1937?

Domenico Emiliani.

Also, it's "capitano di corvetta".

SS - R. Smg. Pier Capponi
Commander:
1932-1933 Speziale, Giuseppe Carlo (Capitano di corvetta)
22.12.1936-? Emiliani, Domenico (Capitano di corvetta)
10.06.1940-31.03.1941 Romei, Romeo (Capitano di corvetta)
(another source gives the date of Romeo Romei's taking command as 03-05-1940, the date of 10-06-1940 being in fact the date of entry in war of Italy)
