By all means, use Claudette -- the original Claudette was a lovely, sweet girl and she was one of those 'game-bantam' types --
Grandmother Mabel is somewhere laughing that she's got a chicken named after her as no one in the family could bring themselves to name a child Mabel ---
and Grandmother was so sweet that we felt that we SHOULD name a child after her but couldn't do it --- even for a middle name and Grandmother Mabel's maiden name was Bigelow so there were no children named after her in any way (and I'm not sure I could even name a rooster --- if I had one -- 'Bigelow')
I like your names way better than mine!
