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.

DeleteOrDecay · 31/10/2016 23:26

I like it!

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

So I would have an Isla, Eleska and Cleo ..... I think it sits well

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

BarInSpace · 31/10/2016 23:30

I like it.

Leanin15yearsmaybe · 31/10/2016 23:30

Love it! Wasn't 'allowed' to call a dc it by my exH so have a gorgeous cleo tabby cat Grin

KoalaDownUnder · 31/10/2016 23:31

I love this name.

DavenotChas · 31/10/2016 23:32

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?

Sophronia · 31/10/2016 23:49

I like it

LeMesmer · 31/10/2016 23:55

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

Buntysoven · 01/11/2016 00:34

Gorgeous with your other names.

Hayls17 · 01/11/2016 07:00

Love it, it's on my girls list but OH has vetoed it Sad it goes well with you other girls names too!

Beammeup11 · 01/11/2016 07:19

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

captaincunt · 01/11/2016 07:26

There are quite a few here but i like it. Two of them in one of the preschool classes we go to.

jusdepamplemousse · 01/11/2016 07:29

Love it

Pluto30 · 01/11/2016 07:56

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.

Greedysquirrels · 01/11/2016 09:23

I love it!

rainbow99 · 01/11/2016 10:07

I like it Smile

FlameGrower · 01/11/2016 10:44

My favourite girls' name.

Sugarpiehoneyeye · 01/11/2016 10:49

Lovely, Eleska is a fab name also 😀

EssentialHummus · 01/11/2016 11:09

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

SpunkyMummy · 01/11/2016 11:17

I like Cleo and Clio

LorelaiVictoriaGilmore · 01/11/2016 11:42

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!
