No; I actually learned about that today (not joking). They both have 14 lines, but Shakespearean sonnets are made up in a different way. They rhyme in different patterns. So, to answer your question, no, a Shakespearean sonnet was not also called an Italian sonnet.

The subject that concerns the speakers in both Shakespearean sonnets is love. They explore various aspects of love such as its power, beauty, and challenges. Love is a central theme in Shakespeare's works, and it is often depicted in a complex and nuanced way in his sonnets.
A sonnet consists of 14 lines of iambic meter. There are two main types of sonnets: the Italian or Petrarchan sonnet and the English or Shakespearean sonnet. Both follow a specific rhyme scheme and often explore themes of love and nature.
Both Sonnet 29 and Sonnet 130 adhere to the Shakespearean sonnet structure, which consists of 14 lines written in iambic pentameter with a rhyme scheme of ABABCDCDEFEFGG. They also explore themes of love, beauty, and the complexities of relationships in a strikingly honest and introspective manner.

Different languages have different metres as their natural sonnet line. In English, by far the commonest metre for a sonnet is Iambic Pentameter: For whom the possessed sea littered, on both shores, Ruinous arms; being fired, and for good, But Iambic Tetrameter is also found: My shrink said "lucid dreaming" tames recurring nightmares.

The term "sonnet" derives from the Provençal word sonet and the Italian word "sonetto," both meaning "little song." By the thirteenth century, it had come to signify a poem of fourteen lines that follows a strict rhyme scheme and specific structure. The conventions associated with the sonnet have evolved over its history
Literary critics usually distinguish sonnets into two major families. A Petrarchan Sonnet has fourteen lines arranged into a group of eight lines, followed by a group of six (an octave followed by the sestet). A change in the point of view nearly always occurs between the two parts, this is called the volta (Italian for 'turn'). A typical rhyme scheme for a Petrarchan sonnet is ABBA ABBA CDECDE. A Shakespearian sonnet also has fourteen lines, but this time they are arranged as three groups of four (quatrains) followed by a riming pair (couplet). The usual pattern is that an idea will be developed through the three quatrains, then summed up in the couplet. Typical rhyming for a Shakespearian sonnet is ABAB CDCD EFEF GG. Shakespearian sonnets are more common, and more natural, in English because they use fewer rhymes (words which rhyme together are much rarer in English than in Spanish, French or Italian). While these are the two main forms, there are many interesting hybrids. John Donne's 'Terrible' sonnets have elements of both Petrarchan and English structure, whereas Milton's sonnets use Petrarchan rhyme patterns, but rarely have a discernible volta. The sonnets of Shelley's 'Ode to the West Wind' are neither Petrarchan nor Shakespearian - they are a new form. And many of Gerard Manley Hopkins sonnets follow no rules but their own.
