A Korean name for Chloe

Each option below pairs Korean syllables with hanja, the Sino-Korean characters that give a name its meaning.
How to write Chloe in Korean
In hangul, Chloe is written 클로이 (keul-lo-i) — three syllables: 클 (keul) · 로 (lo) · 이 (i).
That spells the sound of Chloe in Korean letters — a transliteration, not a name. A Korean given name is composed from syllables Koreans actually use in names, anchored to hanja that carry meaning. The closest one for Chloe is 로운, below.
Compare the two forms: 클로이 uses three syllables and 로운 uses two. The shared 로 carries over, while the Korean name match drops 클 and 이 and adds 운.
