I prefer Harriet and Henrietta over this name. I quite like Arrietty and neutral about Anri and Arrietta.

I'd have guessed that someone heard Henriette pronounced in French and made a guess and a tweak about the spelling. Maybe not; could be a coincidence.
Anri happens regularly in South Africa, where names often get merged. Anna Henrietta, probably! Arrietty was a joke which people who didn't see the joke adopted as a name. I find it comical that there are people named Arrietty or Arrietta rather than Harriet, and other people named Hadrian rather than Adrian.

It doesn't surprise me it came from a reality TV show. It sounds like something that was chosen to sound "pretty" but whoever selected it was trying too hard. I don't care for it. Anri and Arrietta/Arrietty are terrible, I think.

I feel Arietta is prettiest. Classy and sophisticated in my mind. Anrietta doesn't flow as well imo
