Meaning and origin
Clover means The common flowering plant clover (genus Trifolium, from Latin tres 'three' + folium 'leaf'), used directly as a given name rather than through any figurative or indirect meaning.
As a plant, clover carries long-standing folk associations with luck, fertility, and (via its three leaflets) the Christian Trinity, with the rare four-leaf form treated as an especially strong luck symbol, often tied to Irish shamrock tradition; as a personal name it is a modern 'word name' / 'cottagecore' choice rather than a name with its own independent long history of use.
Documented origin: English, directly from the word for the clover plant (genus Trifolium), ultimately from Old English clafre/claefre.

Real-world considerations
- Spelling note: Klover.
- Although current mainstream usage and available ranking data skew clearly female, English word-names like Clover carry no inherent grammatical gender, and some naming-community discussion treats it as a genuinely unisex option; this profile reflects the female-skewing usage pattern actually observed while noting that framing is debated.
