I really love most Jac- names, and I like Jacquetta too, but I don't think I like it as much to actually use it in real life (even if there were no linguistical obstacles), especially that I absolutely adore Lucrezia and like the idea of Lucrezia sometimes nicknamed to Lucy, Lula or Lulu.
Middle names that I could use with it: Gabriella, Ella, Elisabetta, Isabella, Michelle/Mic(h)aela, Anna, Emilianna, Cornelia, Aurelia, Sofia, (H)elena, Clarissa, Eleonora, Flora, Mafalda, Amelia, Adelaide.

Lucrezia Magdalene
Jacquetta
If we're going by present state of names (no variant), then I'd choose Jacquetta. I actually prefer it to Jacqueline. The Lady of the Rivers is also a pretty cool historical figure.
Jacquetta Margot / Jacquetta Margaux
Jacquetta Marguerite
Jacquetta Louise
Jacquetta Laurel
Jacquetta Renée
Jacquetta Rose
Jacquetta Roxane
Jacquetta Cecily
Jacquetta Felice
Jacquetta Marian / Jacquetta Mary
However, if we're counting variants, then I would choose Katarina.
Katarina Lydia
Katarina Juniper
Katarina Pearl
Katarina Vivian
Katarina Juliet

Jacquetta - I dislike Etta and most names ending in -etta. I prefer the -ette ending. Jacquetta feels like Etta + super dated Jacqueline so I don't find it attractive at all. It also makes me think of "jacket" and she will most likely be called bland Jackie anyway.
Lucrezia - isn't bad but over the top and I'd prefer Lucina, Lucette, Lucy, Lucia. Lucinda is better too. I dislike the "crez" part.
Caterina - I find this to be incredibly boring (Catherine was common in France and Katharina crazy common in Germany) but at least it is pretty and I prefer Caterina to Catarina. I'd choose this and I'd call her Kitty sometimes.
Caterina Lily.

Caterina, I think. While I do like Lucrezia, I wouldn't ever use it in real life, and Caterina appeals to me slightly more.
For middle names, I think I'd go with one of these:
Caterina Dorothy
Caterina Genevieve
Caterina Josephine
Caterina Melisande
Caterina Mathilde
Caterina Rosalind
Caterina Theodosia

I like Lucrezia (lu-KRETS-ia) a lot. Caterina is lovely and the one I’d actually choose, if I were to use it IRL, but I’m not a big fan of the spelling. Katharina is my preferred spelling, though Catharina is fine too.
I like these as a middle name for Lucrezia:
Agnese
Beatrice
Assunta
Aurelia
Bianca
Corinna
Elisabetta
Gabriella
Ginevra
Isabella
Leonora
Mafalda
Nerina
Viola
Victoria
