Khloe sits at #361 with 338 entries, leaning strongly female. The spelling is the giveaway — this is a Kardashian-era pick, downstream of the reality-TV cultural footprint that started with Keeping Up With the Kardashians in 2007. The pet-naming pattern follows the human-naming wave by roughly five to eight years.
The reality-TV lineage
Khloe with the K spelling didn't exist meaningfully before Khloe Kardashian became a household name. The Khloe baby name page shows the spelling spiking on the SSA chart from the late 2000s onward, and the pet version is the lagged echo of that. Owners picking it now are usually engaging with the glam-feminine register rather than the Greek root khloe ("young green shoot").
Sound fit and breed lean
The two-syllable shape (KLO-ee) has a hard front consonant and a soft trailing vowel, easy to call across a yard. Khloe lands on small-to-medium dogs more than large ones — Maltipoos, Yorkies, Frenchies, and small mixed breeds. It clusters loosely with Bella and Luna in the glam-feminine cohort.
The classical counter-reading
A small subset of owners come to Khloe through the Greek mythological register — Chloe was an epithet for Demeter, the goddess of grain. That reading is real but minority; the contemporary American Khloe is overwhelmingly the reality-TV lineage rather than the antiquity one. Spelling tells you which.
