What do people think of Cleo? Not one I've heard a lot of recently?

Really like it! Different but known. I see a smart, creative and spirited girl/woman.

i originally posted that we were going to call her Chloe but after naming my last little girl Eleska a lot of people have commented that it was a bit "plain" or "safe" and it popped in to my head and when I mentioned it to my husband he jumped on it! Lol

It's beautiful. I would have loved to have used Cleo for DD but we have an O' surname and it just didn't work. It is a gorgeous, under used name and hearing it makes me smile. Baby Cleo... Wonderful! Smile

I really like it and I think it goes well with your other daughter's name.

It does! I'm a little bit jealous that you can use such a great name Envy

Seriously, they sound right together, maybe all the 'l' sounds without the names themselves being too similar?

It's lovely and goes well with Eleska and Isla. Much nicer than Chloe I think (not that I should have any bearing on what you name your children)Grin

HATE IT, sorry! A stripper or a cats name. There are a few around here were I live. It's becoming popular, guess a bit like Theo

I don't like it.

It's a mystic's name or a cat's name.

I prefer Chloe, but Cleo does go better with your other girls' names.

No from me. My first thought was "Renault".

I love it. Ancient Greek muse of history. DH and I both read history at uni so it's on my list if we have a dd next time!
