Cleo?

[MissusMop23]

I'm expecting DD2 in January. The only name we can agree on is Cleo, but my DD1 is Elise.

Thoughts?

I love it!!! But it reminds me of the car (but I still love it)

I love it too. But I'm worried people will think both my daughters are named after cars

Lovely!

Is Elise a car?! I didn't know that!

I wouldn't associate Elise with a car.

Lotus Elise? Maybe overthinling!

Yeah I wouldn't make that connection... I'm rubbish with cars though - I can't even drive!

Thanks all. I'm hoping it is not too obvious a connection as I really like it.

Love cleo. Didn't make the car connection, I know an Elise and I still never thought of it either.
Go with it!

IME, with a DD called Cleo you get

Occasionally people mentioning the car
People occasionally having cats called Cleo
People occasionally asking if her long name is Cleopatra (not it's not)
People constantly misremembering her name and calling her Chloe (e.g. every teaching assistant)

But in general, great name!

I haven't heard of a car called Elise and wouldn't make that connection though!

Is cleo a full name? I didn't make the car connection either and my first car was a clio.

Cleo is definitely a full name. E.g. Cleo Laine (jazz singer)

the car you're remembering is a Lotus elite. If you are choosing Cleo is that short for Cleopatra (or another name) or are you referencing the muse of history, Clio?

I thought they're both car names straight away I'm afraid. It's actually a Lotus Elise. I know an Elise and it always makes me think of the car. Both lovely names though and I'm sure the majority of people won't make the connection.

I've heard of a lotus Elise, and a Clio, but never thought of them with either name.

I love love love Cleo op! (And Elise, it was on my shortlist for DD :) )

I loved it but DH said no

Great name

I LOVE Cleo!!

Clea maybe, to avoid car association but both lovely!

I've loved it for ages, it's classy and elegant but not too popular.
