i have to ask because ive seen the name spelled with and without the accent- is it cléo or cleo?

it’s cléo! and omg okay i actually had a written thing for this back when i was first setting my girl up but it’s lost in the void now…….. so her maternal grandmother grew up in france and was named anya right. huge huge pianist during her time. and it’s bc of her grandmother that cléo’s mom kemi grew up to be a child of the industry herself (MORE ON THAT LATER!) but kemi wanted to honor anya with her own daughter + just really liked the name cleo (which means to ‘make famous’ btw…) so: cléo anya! the accent is just there for decoration tbh i think it just makes it look prettier LMFAOOO

#⠀⠀⠀⠀﹒⎯⎯ answered.#cléo’s name is very purposefully chosen it’s so important to her story and how she holds herself against the narrative #the narrative: me #IF I CAN JUST YAP IN THE TAGS #like i said above cleo (or clio) means to make famous!#which is so important because all the women in her life are Known Stars…. it was only natural for her to follow in their footsteps!#singing comes natural to her (growing up in the church as a choir kid) so she was very comfortable with it #but after moving to sk and getting her roots ripped out and replanted a whole continent away and having music / singing being taken in such #a different context than she was used to….. oh she suffered BAD 😭 my poor girl….#also note that the most notable person with the name cleo would be a certain queen of egypt…#and as someone who used to play chess (not competitively god fuck no AJAHAHDJW) the ranks and titles of the chess pieces and what they can #do have always interested me #and at the risk of sounding like a fucking nerd (🤓☝🏽) having cléo embody the queen piece ……ohhmfjrheuej #cause the queen piece is the most powerful piece on the fucking board !!! (miss me with that king shit idc)#like if your queen is GONE you’re practically defenseless. and so having cléo’s name also have queen-like connotations and then having her #fuckass ex nearly check her ass out of a career #vibrating fast enough to shatter glass DO YALL UNDERSTAND…….#alright let me stop.
