Thoughts on Chloe?

shancan6980 · September 2013

Chloe is one of the names I've been thinking of. I saw that it's higher on the top 100 list, but I don't personally know anyone with the name.....the others on the list, I can think of lots of girls with those names. I've told a few people this is one we're thinking of and haven't gotten much feedback; so, I didn't know if that was a good or bad thing....lol. If we use this name, we'd find a middle name with one syllable, and our last name starts with a C and is 2 syllables. Is Chloe too popular? Love it, hate it?

Love it, I only know one and she's 6

I like Chloe but it doesn't rock my world. I however think its a great name for someone else. Just an FYI though it does seem to be a popular pet name (cat/dog) which would not deter me, just thought you should know.

It was a popular name in my area about ten years ago so I know several Chloes that are that age. Its NMS but not bad.

msronzio · September 2013

I like Chloe a lot, I also like Chloee.

Manderlin923 · September 2013

It's okay, but I don't love it.

Chloe Jean, Chloe Jane, Chloe Mae, Chloe Brynn, Chloe Faye, Chloe Ruth, Chloe Belle

I love Chloe, it's my daughter's name. We occasionally meet other Chloe's but I am a teacher and I still don't run across that many. I think it's cute on a little girl but ages well too. It is becoming more popular, so if you are concerned, some name with a similar sound/ feel are: Cleo, Clea, Zoe, Jolie

I do like the name, but way too popular at #11 last year for me.

shancan6980 · September 2013

Thanks for the input everyone!

allardr - I kinda find it funny though that Chloe is too popular for you, but your daughter is named Annabelle, which IMO is a popular name (don't get me wrong, I do think the name is cute).

I know only one Chloe and she's two. When I was like 12 I wanted to have twins and name them Chloe and Zoe. Ha, so yeah Chloe is a nice name and I don't hear it often at all.

I like Chloe fine, but it doesn't thrill me. It's cute and legitimate and familiar, which are all good qualities for a name. It's too popular for me, but that doesn't mean it's too popular for you. That's dependent on what you're comfortable with.

I don't love the name but when I think of a little girl called Chloe it sounds cute, a teenager it sounds cool and as an adult if sounds refined.
So if u like it, it's perfect!

Mego04 · September 2013

I like it but I can't picture a 50 year old woman named Chloe

brooksidebride · September 2013

Love it. I only know one and she's 3.5.

Last name probably fine with it. Chloe Carter, for example, sounds fine to me.

Chloe Anne, Chloe Joy, Chloe Jane, Chloe Grace, Chloe Rae, Chloe Lynn

WashingtonQueen · September 2013

I use to like it but now I am just so sick of hearing it.

strawberrytree · September 2013

I really like Chloe. It dropped out of the top 10 this year, but when it was in the top 10 it was definitely my favourite on that list. I taught one a couple years ago and I hear it every now and then, but it's definitely not a name that feels like it's everywhere to me.

This is funny to me because for the first 13 years of my life, the only Chloe I knew was my great aunt and she was in her 80s, so when the Chloe trend started, it seemed like such an old lady name to me.

To op:

In general, I'm indifferent. I don't love it, but I don't hate it and there's nothing wrong with it.

When a name has seriously been in use for thousands of years, I have no trouble picturing it on a woman of any age, in any time period.

Kardashian is, unfortunately, the first thing that comes to mind....yuck! Otherwise I think it would be a cute name for a little girl.

rtv3 · October 2013

I think it's cute

arizonatea · October 2013

I like Chloe but I think it's getting WAY too popular. What about Cleo? It's similar but I've never heard one

mh89 · October 2013

Very cutesy and blah to me. It's a well known, solid name though so you can't go wrong with it so long as you don't change the spelling.... I just don't personally love it.

dairygirl19 · October 2013

I'm going to be the dissenter. It's one of my only and most hated girl names, TBH.

I hate the way it sounds, I hate the way it looks.

I don't really know why, it's legit, spelled right, shouldn't be bad, but I just don't like it.

FWIW, I know it's popular, but I only know one and she's 5 and that's because I work in a school. Otherwise I wouldn't know a single one.

Jeveritt11 · October 2013

The only Chloe's are know are 2 dogs and 1 cat. It's NMS.

susieandmarty · October 2013

I like it but Dh's cousin has a dog Chloe and it is such a yappy little dog I lost all Intetest in the name

Dr.Loretta · October 2013

I like it. I think it ages well, as Scarlett said.

Same.

There's nothing inherently wrong with it, it's just not my style.
