Henrietta, nn Etta or Hetta is very nice - my winner!
Ariadne a bit 'try hard' to my ears and and Tabitha a bit of a cat's name, but ok.

  1. Tabitha
  2. Ariadne
  3. Henrietta (presumably isn't risible with your surname, but she might have a different one in later life).

I prefer henrietta out of three.

Tabitha makes me think of cats and Ariadne spiders as above

Kelly1992 · 01/05/2013 09:12

Tabitha/Tabatha - Love
Ariadne - How do you say this ???
Henrietta - Too old for my liking

Don't really like tabitha but I suspect that is a name connection thing
Love the other two though I think henrietta is more popular

Henrietta I love.

Tabitha makes me think of cats and Ariadne makes me think of spiders. Both are pretty though, but Henrietta is in a league of its own!
