Origin and meaning

young green shoot, blooming (Greek)

Derived from ancient Greek mythology and early Christian texts, Chloe entered Filipino naming conventions primarily through Western media and modern English baby-naming trends. In the Philippines, it represents a contemporary, fashionable choice for girls born from the late 1990s onward.

Chloe originates from the Greek 'Khloē', meaning 'young green shoot' or 'blooming', an epithet of the goddess Demeter. It appears in the New Testament (1 Corinthians 1:11) and became widespread in the English-speaking world before gaining high popularity in the Philippines as a modern female given name.
