Keep in mind that these are names. When reading kanji, there is the "sound reading" and the "meaning reading". You know how in manga and anime there are characters whose names have meanings in regards to each individual kanji that make their names up? But their name isn't read with the "meaning reading", but with the "sound reading".

Look at all the MC's names. The first part of their names are spelled with kana, and the last part with a kanji. However, their names are NOT read with the "meaning reading", but with the "sound reading".

The meaning reading of 吉 is "yoshi" as in "good luck". However, you read it with the sound reading instead. Hence, "Kichi" instead of "Yoshi". The 3 Lords names SHOULD be read with the sound reading like everybody else's names have been.

When it comes to the proper names of individual characters, you should always read them with the sound reading.
