Chloe (Шаблон:IPAc-en;[1] Шаблон:Lang-elШаблон:Efn), also spelled Chloë, Chlöe, or Chloé, is a feminine name meaning "blooming" or "fertility" in Greek. The name ultimately derives, through Greek, from the Proto-Indo-European root Шаблон:PIE, which relates to the colors yellow and green.[2]Шаблон:Citation needed The common scientific prefix chloro- (e.g. chlorine and chloroplast) derives from the same Greek root. In Greek the word refers to the young, green foliage or shoots of plants in spring.

Шаблон:Lang was one of the many epithets of the goddess Demeter.[3] The name appears in the New Testament, in 1 Corinthians 1:11 in the context of "the house of Chloe", a leading early Christian woman in Corinth, Greece.[4] The French spelling is Chloé.
