Klohie
A girl's name of Greek origin with 48 recorded U.S. births.
Meaning & Origin
Klohie peaked during the Gen Z era, when 8 babies received this name in a single year (2010). That era was defined by globally influenced, diversity-driven naming, and Klohie has a more concentrated history, reflecting a specific cultural moment rather than a broad generational wave.
Klohie is not in the current top 1,000 girl names nationally, making it an uncommon choice — though your state or community may differ.
Klohie is a girl's baby name of Greek origin, a phonetic variant of Chloe, from the Greek khloe, meaning 'blooming' or 'young green shoot.' Chloe appears in the New Testament as an early Christian woman greeted by Paul, and later as a character in the pastoral novel Daphnis and Chloe.
Klohie gives the eternally fresh Chloe a more individualized spelling — the K opening and the -ie ending creating a distinctive visual identity while keeping all of the name's natural, springtime warmth.
