What is the meaning of the name Chloe ?

The baby name Chloe is a Female name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced /ˈkloʊ.i/ (KLOH-ee); UK: /ˈkləʊ.i/.

Chloe is Greek in Origin.

Chloe is derived from Greek Χλόη (Khloe), "green shoot, tender verdure," an epithet of Demeter, goddess of agriculture, evoking fertility and springtime growth. It appears in the New Testament (1 Corinthians 1:11) as the name of a Christian woman in Corinth, aiding its early adoption among Christians.

Used sporadically in Britain from the 17th century, it gained favor in the 18th-century pastoral vogue and surged in late 20th-21st centuries across the English-speaking world, Ireland, Australia, and France, where Chloé ranks highly. Common forms include Chloé (French), Khloe (modern English respelling), Cloe or Cloé (Spanish, Italian, Portuguese), and the Greek Χλόη (Chloe). Diminutives such as Clo or Clo-Clo appear in French. Related meanings remain "blooming," "fresh," and "fertile," giving the name a bright, botanical character.
