David,

Coincidentally, back in 2015 I made a spreadsheet to help me do just that. It lists all 128 points of the compass, their headings, and - if you type a degree heading into the box - it will tell you what the closest point is. The list of points is color coded to help me remember which "direction" the quarter points go.
Spreadsheet is attached.
Cheers!

PS
SE x E 1/4 E is 120.9°. Also coincidentally, I had saved the sheet at SE x E 3/4 E ... imagine that. ;)
