I have the same concerns about a Taj Mahal look. And if the two
children are shrunk in size it looks like a pawn chess piece.
I asked a few Japanese people today about four. They all said, "Don't
worry about it."

Taiwan's 1000 dollar note apparently has four children on it. And
apparently "four people" can also mean mahjong (not negative connotation).
So I guess we shouldn't worry about four in this context.
There are concerns that A looks less professional than B. I would have
to agree with this. OTOH, I really like the lettering of A, and I'm not
very excited about the logo of A or B.
I wonder what B logo looks like if you're forced to monochrome colors or
printing on a simple T-shirt. Gradients might not work well for that.
