Sister for Harriet

Hi! We have just had our second child, we had a boys name lined up but we have had a girl. Therefore we are struggling to name her. My DD1 is called Harriet, so please can you help with a name that goes with this?

I instantly thought Charlotte when reading this, it ends in a T sound like Hariet as well as containing many of the same letters, yet the names still sound individual if you see what I mean

We really like Charlotte, just don't like Lottie or Charlie which she will likely get.

Congrats and welcome to Harriet!
My suggestions are:
Harriet Venetia
Harriet Sibylla

Congratulations! Verity or Esther - my grandmother was an Esther who had a sister called Harriet, and a friend's little Verity was very nearly a Harriet.

I have a Claudia and Harriet was my girl’s name for no.2 (had a boy!). I actually wanted to avoid having two ending in the same sound- so many girls names end in “-ah”, my list of possibilities wasn’t very long.
