Jenette vs. Jennet vs. Jeanette

Hi, everyone! So, I really like the name Jenette. I know that the original spelling is Jeanette, but I'm not a huge fan of that. I mainly don't like the "Jean" portion of the name. I'm tempted to read it as "JEEN-eht" instead of "Juh-neht". However, I know that Jeanette is much more common. Which spelling should I use? Another name that I'm into is Jennet. Now, this is a Medieval English name. It's pronounced like the name Janet, but with Jen. With this name, it could be confused for both Jenette/Jeanette and Janet. I think that this is a really cool name, though. It's definitely unique. So…now onto my dilemma; which name should I use? Should I go with my preferred spelling of Jenette or use Jeanette? Or, should I go for Jennet instead? Any help is appreciated.

Poster here! Another name that I like is Lynette. This one has a connection to Arthurian romance! Do you prefer it to any of these names?

You could also spell Jeanette as Janette. This would be my preference. My second pick would be Lynette.
