Etymology & Historical Origin of the Baby Name Kloe

Kloe is a random Americanized respelling of Chloe. It’s unclear to us if parents are pronouncing it with one or two syllables (i.e., KLO vs. KLO-ee). What we do know is that Chloe comes from the Greek “khlóē” meaning “young green shoot (of a plant)”. It was used in the Classical Era as an epithet (nickname) for the Goddess Demeter in Greek mythology. Demeter was the goddess of fertility, the harvest and the seasons, so Khloe has an appropriate etymology for the Greek earth mother and agricultural goddess). The name Chloe is also mentioned fleetingly in the Bible in 1 Corinthians 1:11 in the context of “the House of Chloe” which served to bring decisiveness to Paul’s teachings. The name was adopted by the Puritans in the 17th century after the Protestant Reformation during a period when more minor Biblical names were revived. Today Chloe is an ultra-popular name throughout the Western World. Chloé is a favorite name for baby girls in France and a high ranking choice in all English-speaking nations from Northern Ireland to the United States to Australia.
