Full disclosure: the babies we are naming are hens, not humans, so no need to worry about school bullying or job applications

Obviously Henrietta is on the list, open to any and all suggestions

Lots have beaten me to it, but I knew an Araminta at university. She was very nice but the absolute poshest sounding person I have ever met.

Actually, having thought about it, if I had Hon Hens I would call them:

Emily
Harriet
Imogen
Prudence
Octavia

In honour of Jilly, queen of the posh gels. (Bella was not posh).

Or:
Nancy
Diana
Pamela
Unity
Jessica
Deborah

In honour of the original U gels. Maybe politically a bit iffy tho.

Wasn't Pamela was a bit of a big deal in the hen world so seems appropriate (or possibly Debo, can't remember).

Also, may I suggest that Arbella is posher than Arabella.

Great thread!
Though my name has come up half a dozen times which I don't think is a good thing (no it's not Araminta though this is a great name for a hen)!

Virginia
Cressida
Hester
Georgina (George)
Rosanna
Coco
