In Italian books I kinda seen them all (“” ‘’ “„ «»), but I think the
first two are the most common.

Those Who Rule the Italian language say [1] that:
“” «» are equally used to quote text or speech.
‘’ are generally used to quote a word or a sentence.
The type of quotation used in the newspapers mainly depend on internal
editorial choices.

should certainly be chosen for Italian. Though it still seems "strange"
to me. Oh well, I'll talk about it with the people that help me with the
Italian translation and we'll see.
