Khloe

Girl name · 275 babies recorded · 1974–2025

Khloe: 275 babies born in Scotland since 1974, given to girls, peaking at 35 births in 2011.

Derived from the Greek name Chloe, meaning 'blooming' or 'green shoot', Khloe takes its alternative spelling from modern variations, most notably popularised by the Kardashian-Jenner family with Khloé Kardashian, a reality television star and businesswoman. The original Chloe was an ancient Greek epithet for the goddess Demeter, associated with fertility and the harvest. In Scotland, the name has seen a steady rise since the early 2000s, reflecting broader global trends. While there are no direct place connections, the Greek root shares a link with the word 'chlorophyll', the green pigment in plants. A further note: the 'Kh' spelling is relatively recent, gaining traction in the late 20th century, particularly in the United States and the United Kingdom.
