They're actually aircraft tail sections that are based on WWII aircraft, with tail props. The girls names are homages to historic ace fighter pilots from several different countries... some interesting reading in the wiki entry on that. I never knew there were two female aces (WWII, both Russian).
They're not trying to make WWII look cute, it's just a theme that they've used because aviation took so many important leaps during that time and the aircraft from that period were simply kick ass.
