<< You suggest that there are only three major thirds in an octave and 
four minor thirds in an octave.  What are you naming as the three 
major thirds and four minor thirds?

I might not be on the same page with you on this but I would name 
nine (9) major thirds; i.e.
C   E, C#  F, D F#, D# G, E G#, F A, F# A#, G B, G# C. >>

 "Contiguous thirds"
