Hmm... if I had to guess... doesn't she have long blond hair? (Or didn't she)

Those criteria make sense. Words can sound quite muffled and unclear when you're talking into your wrist.

I also like how their codenames describe some positive aspect of their character. Except for smurfette. Don't what that's about.

These names are damn silly.
