In summary

From Scots clour, from Early Scots clour, clowr (“a lump or swelling caused by a blow, welt”), of uncertain origin. Often assumed to be a variant of Scots cloor (“to scratch; a scratch”), from Norwegian klore (“to scratch with the nails”), from Old Norse klóra (“to scrawl, scratch”), klór (“a scratching”), however derivation is doubtful as the shift in meaning is difficult to explain. More at cloor.
