[Facts] Jacquenetta
Was Jacquenetta invented by Shakespeare? I can't find references to it anywhere other than Shakespeare's play Love's Labours Lost, nor can I find any references to it before that. It also appears as the kind of "idealised" name from another culture that Shakespeare sometimes used.Thanks.

It seems like a feminine pet variant of "Jacques," maybe? He invented a lot of names, though, so it's safe to assume that he invented that one.
Sawubona!
