ArchivesRe: origin of my name
in reply to a message by Clu Tamlin
Hi Clu!
Clu isn't Danish for sure. Irish sounds more likely. There are two Welsh names I found: Clud and Clust, but I don't know the meanings. Maybe Merriment can help? And I found this Celtic name: Cluny meaning "meadow"...
Regards, Satu

not a clue....(m)
Sorry :).
But seriously, it's probably from a surname (if it's English in origin), and the best bet is Clough (cluff) also found in the form Clue/Clew, and meaning 'dweller in a steep-sided valley or ravine'.
