Cloria is Latin, Spanish in Origin.

Cloria is an uncommon English given name, generally understood as a variant or creative respelling of Gloria. Its etymological root is Latin gloria, meaning "glory, renown, praise," carried into Christian vocabulary through the hymn "Gloria in excelsis Deo" and long favored across the Romance languages. As Gloria rose in the Anglophone world - especially in the early to mid-20th century - Cloria appears in scattered records as a stylistic alternative, preserving the same celebratory sense while offering a crisper opening consonant.

Standard variants include Gloria (English, Spanish, Italian), Glória (Portuguese), Glòria (Catalan), and the English word-name Glory; Glorie is also seen on occasion. Possible nicknames are Glo, Lori, Ria, and Clo. Though sometimes confused with Clora or Chloris, those names stem from Greek khlōrós ("pale green") and are unrelated. Today Cloria remains rare, appreciated for its familiarity-by-association with Gloria and its concise, radiant meaning of praise and honor.
