I can't come up with a good English name similar to Yuko, which is why I went with Sara. The only Y-names I could think of were "Yvette", "Yvonne", and "Yolanda", but they were all too out-there. (No offense to anyone who has those names) Those names work better than mines. Though, it has been rumored that HaCha became "Glitter Force: Fashion Tales" and Megumi's english name was Melanie, which doesn't fit that well. I hope they don't call it Glitter Force: Fashion Tales. That would be underselling the product by making it look like plotless pandering to girls. (Then again, the title Glitter Force by itself is also pandering to little girls, so one could argue it wouldn't make that much of a difference.)

According to Behind the Name, Melanie means "black" or "dark". It's also the name of a wealthy saint who gave all her money to charity. While it wouldn't be the best name, it would fit a little bit. Pretty much every Cure in Happiness Charge has a black vest, and Megumi sacrifices her time and physical well-being to protect humanity. I see. The first episode has been shown online, by the name of "Glitter Force: Fashion Tales" The link for the first episodes. It has been deleted? They deleted it on YouTube. And I think with names, Hasbro would most likely create english names for the girls, like Megumi- Melanie or Megan would work, and Aino, lovve is good.

Glitter Names:

Cure Lovely to Glitter Love, Glitter Lovely, or Glitter Happy

Cure Princess to Glitter Princess or Glitter Tiara

Cure Honey to Glitter Honey or Glitter Clover? (Maybe, since she has clovers in her background for attacks and transformation)

Cure Fortune to Glitter Starlight or Glitter Fortune
