And in last night's writing...
 
#19
I've thought about it a little bit.  I feel like Sailor Jupiter would have been Princess Jupiter in the Silver Millennium.  But maybe some linguistic memory survived, which caused the Roman gods to be named after the planets?  It'd help to explain why Minako was messing around Greek ruins, I guess.  I'm assuming the name was corrupted from the original Moonglish for the planet, "Jyupitaa". =D
But gosh, [[wikipedia:List of minerals named after people] is a list of plot holes for BSSM, especially season 1.  There are really only two ways out of the morass of linguistics in fantasy: the MST3K Mantra, or what Tolkien did.  It's for this reason that I try to avoid puns and wordplay when doing fantasy gaming for precisely this reason (and given my personality that is really hard).  Maybe in Sailor Moon you could chalk it up to reincarnation, or similarity to true names or something?
