I used to be bothered by Cloe; it seemed truncated in a way that really bugged me. But my in-laws spell my name this way because it's the more common spelling where they are from, so I'm coming around to it. It has a spare sort of elegance to it, if I sort of tilt my head and squint :)

I'd maybe go with something like..... Cloe Lucinda.

Cloe is ludicrous. Chloe doesn't need to be dumbed down, surely? People have been pronouncing it correctly for millennia. And removing the -h- makes it look unGreek, and therefore likely to be pronounced Kloh.

Cloe is acceptable. Much prefer Chloe or Khloe. But Cloe is okay.

This is not a good spelling. It just looks like a mistake. I don't like Chloe either, it's too cutesy and baby-talk-sounding.

Chloe is beautiful, but this spelling is bound to cause confusion and it looks incomplete. Can I suggest Cleo?

I think it’s very pretty, but I prefer the spelling Chloe.
