I love Henrietta. It transports me back to 17th century England and the court of Charles II. In my mind, a Henrietta has van Dyke ringlets framing her face and a choker of pearls.

Henrietta Verity
Henrietta Arabelle / Arabella
Henrietta Charlotte
Henrietta Mary / Maria (Charles II's mother)
Henrietta Louise / Louisa
Henrietta Pearl
Henrietta Ruby
Henrietta Diana
Henrietta Margaret / Margot
Henrietta Sarah / Sadie
Henrietta Caroline
Henrietta Catherine
Henrietta Sylvia
Henrietta Sophie
Henrietta Anne
Henrietta Lucy
Henrietta Jane
Henrietta Annabel
Henrietta Georgina
Henrietta Flora
Henrietta Matilda
Henrietta Beatrice
Henrietta Alice
Henrietta Frances
Henrietta Isabelle
Henrietta Winifred
Henrietta Lenore

The nn Hettie, Hattie, Ettie, Etta and Harriet are all lovely.
