Kloe

Girl name · 36 babies recorded · 1974–2025

Kloe: 36 babies born in Scotland since 1974, given to girls, peaking at 6 births in 2000.

Kloe is a modern variant spelling of Chloe, a name of Greek origin meaning 'blooming' or 'green shoot' – a reference to the young foliage of spring and an epithet of the goddess Demeter. Among notable bearers is Kloe Kardashian, an American media personality, though the name also appears in classical literature as the beloved in the ancient Greek novel *Daphnis and Chloe*. While no places are directly named Kloe, the root *chloros* (green) influences botanical terms and place names such as Chloris. In Scotland, the spelling Kloe has grown in popularity since the late 1990s, offering a fresh, streamlined take on a timeless classic while remaining distinct from its more common form, Chloe.
