Were you expecting something different?

Chikyū seems to be used in Japanese to refer to Earth as a proper noun, and not a generalized noun like "planet" would be. At least, I haven't seen it used that way before. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
No source, which is why I fell back on "Mau of Earth" (and, for Diana, "Mao of the Moon of Earth") t distinguish them from Mau of other star systems.
Okay, that's what I thought. It's just that it gets to be a real mouthful and that kinda bugs me.
Perhaps if we could do something about Mau being a dead world?
Maybe we can convince the Federation to dust off Project Genesis with the aim to revive planets rendered lifeless by Galaxia? I mean, we do have Hotaru, but she'll need a few years to grow up all over again after each shot.

A more Kelkic feel, perhaps? <rimshot>
Meanwhile, am I bad person for spotting "Moon Kingdom" early on in the above discussion and briefly misreading it as "Moon Klingon", and then ignoring most of the talk of house/clan/family structures in favor of imagining Sailor Qo'nos appearing down the road after the Federation shows up?
Much like Mulan, Sailor Qo'nos' actions bring honour to us all.
Sailor Qo'nos', eh?
"Our ways are different, yes. But these girls are truly warriors. They have stared down the creeping, cowardly things that thrive in the shadows. They have beaten back those that were perverted in such craven ways. They have fought against the most vile of monsters - monsters the likes of which not even Fek'Ihr can compare to! They may seem like soft little humans, but the humans have shown us time and time again - their bodies may be weak, but their spirits are strong and noble. They endure hardships like Klingons, daring even their own Gods to strike them down! These girls who are no older than I have the hearts of warriors. And I shall be honored to join their ranks!"
