There is always some meaning in a name so why not the characters of Pretty Soldier Sailormoon? I have taken it upon myself to look deeper and find out what's in a name.
Translation: The first kanji, "ka", translates to "fire". The second kanji used "kyuu" translates to "ball, sphere". The third kanji translates to "imperial" and the fourth translates to "woman". Together, the final two kanji come to mean "imperial princess". Naoko-sensei uses the katakana that spell out "purinsesu" above the two kanji that mean imperial princess indicating that she should be called "princess." So, her name would come to the translation of "Fireball Princess".
