OK cool, we'll see if a fourth joins, if not it's no big deal. Also, the traditionally assigned elements, directions, seasons are:

Dragon-Wood-East-Spring
Bird-Fire-South-Summer
Tiger-Metal-West-Autumn
Tortoise-Water-North-Winter

Directions and seasons aren't that important, just for flavor.

I was actually planning on naming my girl "Akiko" because of the seasons things, honestly. ^^; I am such a nerd like that.

Would you guys prefer a Japanese setting, or a generic melting pot (America-style) setting?

I always associate Magical Girl with Japan, but that might just be me. ^^;

OK, I'll see to making a Japan-esque setting, meaning no "Woodstone" or "Blossom Hills" as place names.

Haha, I use "you guys" in a gender-neutral sense. "You girls" and "you ladies" seem weird to me, and "y'all" makes me sound like a Texan. "You people" is racist.

How on Earth is 'you people' racist? Rude I can get my head around, but racist...? @_@

Yay, Japan!

I was joking about the "you people", but here: http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/you_people

Also, if you guys want to get super nerdy, some surname choices could be: Azuma (which literally means 'East') for Azure Dragon, or Minami (Which literally means 'South') for Vermilion Bird. Common surnames with 'Nishi' (for West) include "Nishiyama" or "Nishino". I don't know what surnames have 'North' in them though.

EDIT: Other seasons include Haru for Spring, Natsu for Summer, and Fuyu for Winter. Haruko, Natsuko, and Fuyuko are all actual names, though it might get a little too cheesy if we followed that convention.

Akiko Weston. >.> <.<

...I seem to have gotten it into my head for some reason that since she represents west, she is only half-Japanese. ^^;

Also it's magical girl! Why are you worried about it being too cheesy? XD

Maybe cheesy wasn't the right word, more like, boring or repetitive. For example, instead of having everyone's names end in '-ko', Azure Dragon could be Haruka, Harumi, Chiharu. etc. to mix it up or something.
