I suggest it is a mispelled Ninetta.
Southern or Southan [Hereford , Monmouthshire & Glos], Jenkins, Meredith and Morgan [Monmouthshire and Glos.], Murrill, Damary, Damry, Ray, Lawrence [all Middx. & London], Nethway from Kenn or Yatton. Also Riley and Lyons in South Africa and Riley from St. Helena.

I believe it to be Birnetta.

The capital is a poorly formed B.  The . over the r has a similar misplacement as the . over the a in William 5 places up and the . over the a in Maria a further 3 places up.
