Help[Opinions] Tired (m)
in reply to a message by Quicksilver
It needs to be retired. I know it's ancient, but it's suffered from contemporary overuse.
I'd opt for something like Chloe Frederica or Chloe Minerva.

It seems like the use (or overuse) of Chloe is regional. I have never met a single Chloe in real life (born '91) - none of my classmates had the name, none had sisters with the name... This is why it has never seemed "tired" to me, personally.
I will say, though, that my step-siblings grew up in the county west of me, where the suburbs start to sprawl a little more and... well, I'll just come out and say it: the population is significantly whiter. And there were five Chloes in my stepsister's class in the yearbook. (This same thing happened with Courtney: never personally went to school with a single one, but in the next county over there were Courtneys galore.)

Agreed. I have met one Chloe in my life (1990 baby) and it was the English name chosen by a Chinese student I had in China.
So it still feels fresh to me. I love the meaning, "green shoots" it makes me think of springtime.

The regional thing makes sense.
In England and Wales (where I am!) it was the number one name for girls for six years running!
