Chloris was one of Niobe and Amphione's fourteen children. Before then she was known as Meliboea. When Niobe insulted Artemis and Apollo's mother, Leto, Artemis and Apollo killed all of their children except one or two. One that was saved was Meliboea who then changed her name to Chloris meaning pale one, because she was so frightened by the event that she turned pale. Niobe bragged that she was better than Leto because Leto only had two children while she had fourteen, and as a result she lost them.
