There are masculine names with no COMMON feminine forms, but there is no such thing as a masculine name which could NOT have a feminine form. They can always be created by adding a femininzing suffix.Many of the names on your list have well-known feminine forms. Harriet and Henrietta have been feminine forms of Harry and Henry used commonly in English speaking countries ever since King Charles I of England was married to Queen Henrietta Maria. Marcia is a feminine of Marcus and can also be used as a feminine of Mark, and it's not hard to find examples of women named Markelle or Markette.

And there are rare examples of other feminines like Lukette:
