Chloë

Chloë Origin and Meaning

The name Chloë is a girl's name.

Chloë is a feminine name of Greek origin meaning 'young green shoot' or 'blooming.' The dieresis (the two dots over the 'e') indicates that the final vowel is pronounced separately, giving the name its distinctive two-syllable pronunciation: KLO-ee. In Greek mythology, Chloë was an alternative name for Demeter, the goddess of agriculture and fertility. The name has enjoyed consistent popularity throughout the centuries but saw a particular resurgence in the late 20th and early 21st centuries. While the spelling without the dieresis (Chloe) is more common in English-speaking countries, the traditional Chloë form is appreciated for its classical authenticity and visual distinctiveness.
