It's a GP of mine. It's silly, but there's something lovable and fun about it, and it's very much a zeitgeist name - it had quite a wave of popularity in the 1900s after the death of Victoria, amongst people from all sorts of backgrounds. The records show plenty of Queenie Victorias, and every other queen the UK has ever had.
There were also quite a few named after landmarks in the Boer War: Queenie Ladysmith, Queenie Transvaal, Queenie Pretoria
plenty of floral Queenies: Queenie Violet, Queenie Primrose, Queenie Daisy, Queenie Myrtle, Queenie Iris, Queenie Viola, Queenie Rose, Queenie Pansy, Queenie Flora & Queenie Flower
and more unusual Queenies: Queenie Novella, Queenie Carnatia, Queenie Topsy, Queenie Maisabelle, Queenie Corona, Queenie Irenie, Queenie Dagmar, Queenie Zella, Queenie Virtue, Queenie Vesta, Queenie Gwenllian, Queenie Bethiah, Queenie Ambrosia, Queenie Ethelwyne, Queenie Modesta, Queenie Decima, Queenie Undine, Queenie Avonia, Queenie Crystal (a bit surprising for 1908!) and Queenie Glendora.

I'd be at a loss to pick a favourite, but Queenie Mabel is a good period one and the names fit together quite well.
