This looks like a marriage or death record. In Italian records, it is understood that the child shares the surname of the father, so if a child's surname listed (e.g. as the bride/groom in a marriage record), then the father's surname will not generally be listed as it is understood it will be the same as the child's. The same is true on a death record.
Also, the word here is "calzolaio". The letter that looks like a "j" is called the "long i" in Italian orthography and is found in older records in certain vowel combinations, especially when the i is sandwiched between two other vowels. So you see "calzolajo" but it's actually calzolaio.

Occupation. The surname would be Iocchi, same as the child.

Attilio's birth is listed in the 1879 index:

But unfortunately the book with this birth record (n. 1-597, Vol. 1, Parte 1, Serie C) is not available online.

These are civil records, you would have to contact the City of Rome Stato Civile to request the record:
