What is the meaning of the name Kloe ?

The baby name Kloe is a Female name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced KLOH-ee (IPA: /kloʊ.i/).

Kloe is Greek in Origin.

Kloe is a modern respelling of Chloe, derived from Greek Khloē (Χλόη), an epithet of the harvest goddess Demeter meaning green shoot, blooming, or young verdure. The name appears in classical pastoral poetry and is also borne by a woman mentioned in the New Testament (1 Corinthians 1:11), which helped it enter Christian name stock. It surfaced in English in the 17th–18th centuries during the pastoral vogue and surged again internationally from the late 20th century.

Spelled with K rather than Ch, Kloe keeps the pronunciation KLOH-ee while offering a streamlined, contemporary look; it remains less common than Chloe in most English-speaking countries. Related forms include Chloe/Chloë (English; diaeresis sometimes used), Chloé (French), Cloe (Spanish/Italian), and Khloe/Khloé (transliterative and celebrity-influenced), with rarer Kloé. All share the same springlike imagery of fresh growth and fertility.
