Origin:British
Meaning:Meadow flower; One who cleaves wood
Clover is a girl’s name of English origin, meaning “meadow flower.” Inspired by nature, this name could be perfect for a baby who blossoms to life in the spring, just in time for St. Patrick's Day. A symbol of good luck, the verdant flower is often associated with the luck of the Irish and may bring just that to this little girl’s life. This modern take on the classic floral names of times gone by might also present an ideal way to pay homage to the past while embracing the promise of the future. Alternatively, Clover could derive from the surname Cleaver, offering the definition of “one who cleaves wood,” adding another natural layer to this moniker.
