kloÉ

Kloé is a given name, primarily used as a feminine given name. It is a variant spelling of the name Chloé, which originates from the Greek word "khlóē" (χλόη), meaning "young green shoot" or "blooming." This etymology connects the name to themes of new growth, fertility, and spring. The name Chloé itself has a long history, appearing in ancient Greek mythology as an epithet for the goddess Demeter, the goddess of agriculture and harvest.

The spelling Kloé is less common than Chloé but is recognized as an alternative. Its popularity has seen fluctuations over time and across different regions. While Chloé is widely used in many Western countries, Kloé may be encountered more frequently in specific cultural contexts or as a conscious stylistic choice by parents. The pronunciation of Kloé is generally similar to Chloé, with the emphasis on the second syllable. The name's association with a fresh, natural image has contributed to its enduring appeal.
