I love this, but is it a cow's name?! Thoughts?

I do like Chloe, I also quite like Clodagh, but of the three I think Clover wins for me. Good to see not everyone is against it as I had anticipated more 'what are you thinking' comments! Saying it out loud now at home to see if it works...

Yes you're right Rhubarb I knew there was a Clover in there somewhere Smile

Clover butter and Flora margarine Grin Joyous.
Please do it OP have a second girl and call them Clover and Flora...gawan gawan gawan, that would be fabulous just to see people's faces.
Clo is a nice nn but for God's sake do not let her do German or go to Germany unless you want everyone to think you are naming her after a toilet. Klo means loo here. That said,Lou exists in the UK and no one seems to take the piss.
Chloe? Briony? Rowan? Posy?

I love it - I loved the What Katy Did books so it reminds me of them.

squoosh · 22/04/2015 21:18

I definitely think 'cow'.

Rhubarbgarden · 22/04/2015 20:53

Nicki there is a Clover in Watership Down, but she's one of the hutch rabbits they rescue from the farm, not the creepy warren rabbit.

I really like it and thought of Clover Carr. I don't think the cows name thing is an issue, but then one of my poor dts has a dogs name, so what do I know

FelixFelix · 22/04/2015 20:28

I love it. I don't think of a cow when I hear it.

LemonYellowSun · 22/04/2015 20:25

I knew someone called Clover so I don't think of a cow. There was an athlete who spelt it Clova

Takver · 22/04/2015 20:13

Clover Carr. Lovely. And Clo is a nice nickname too.

timelyreminder · 22/04/2015 20:06

Or how about Chloe, Claire or Clarissa as an alternative?

timelyreminder · 22/04/2015 20:06

I think it's pretty and no, I didn't think of cows.

Makes me think of Clover Carr. I love it.

Daisy makes me think of cows a lot more, and that is popular enough!

33goingon64 · 22/04/2015 20:00

I know a Clovy - would that work?

Madamecastafiore · 22/04/2015 19:56

Moo

NickiFury · 22/04/2015 19:55

Isn't Clover the creepy rabbit in watership down that tries to get them to stay at the warren where the farmer feeds them and uses them as his own personal rabbit meat source?

BooChunky · 22/04/2015 19:53

I think of Sofia the first...

Yep, Katy books! I think it's cute, I like Clo as a nickname too...but the animal thing concerns me!

Rhubarbgarden · 22/04/2015 19:36

I love it. It would have been a strong contender for us but it doesn't work with our surname. Gutted.

SerenaJoy · 22/04/2015 19:33

the Katy books ffs

Leeds2 · 22/04/2015 19:33

Cow or butter for me, too.

Joyfulldeathsquad · 22/04/2015 19:33

Not for me!

SerenaJoy · 22/04/2015 19:32

I like it, but I love Katy books Smile

Redglitter · 22/04/2015 19:31

Cow or butter definitely
