Hi BYC. I need help choosing two names. One for a POL Hybrid Hen and one for a not-yet-hatched chick.

The hen is friendly and time. She likes strokes and cuddles! She is a RIR x Golden-laced Wyandotte. I'm thinking of the name Henrietta but I would love suggestions. Names similar to that would be good!

The chick is currently chirping inside it's egg. I had a broody hen and didn't think the one egg she was sitting on was fertile. That was, until, I decided to candle it at the same time as some duck eggs and realised it was alive. I had no Idea when she started sitting. But I knew this hen was murderous because she had hatched out a couple of chicks before and things didn't go too well. So yesterday I took the egg away and stuck it in the incubator. I heard it cheeping today so I know it won't be long before it hatches! I need name suggetions that would be fine for either gender. I have had two lone pet chicks before named Hobnob and Pipin if that helps (which it probably dosen't).
And, erm, here's a little inspiration:

I like Henrietta too. I called my black copper maran Lucy (after Lucille Ball) because of her "red hair". One of my other girls (that's her on the left in my avatar) is called Josephine after the french queen. As your girl is gold-laced, a regal name would suit - if not Josephine, Elizabeth or Charlotte or Mary or any of them. Pick a queen!

As for the baby how about Kim?
 
My hens names are as follows;
Cornelia
Harriet
Henrietta
Honey
Azalea
Chickaletta

The other ones are named after breed, character or appearance;
Houdini
Lacey
Orpy
Frizz
Nigeria
 
I'm not quite at the acquisition naming stage yet, but we've had some interesting naming suggestions from the family:
Terriyaki seemed a little distasteful
Lindsey Lowhen
Christina Egguilera
Rita Hayworth
Sophia Lorhen

Therre were others, but they've slipped my mind
 
Henrietta! And the babe could be Chickaletta, or Rubble (I have small kids that watch Paw Patrol, and Chickaletta is the mayor's chicken. Rubble is one of the pups.)
