Given these are photo sizes, how about:

    oe_photo-square_4x4in
    oe_photo-square_5x5in
    om_photo-square_89x89mm

Given this is for business cards, I would suggest:

    om_business-card_55x91mm

I have also seen 55x85mm shown as a standard size of business cards in Europe, although that is within 1mm of the credit card size.  In North America we use 2x3.5in...  *If* we added those for completeness we'd have:

    oe_business-card_2x3.5in (North America)
    om_business-card_55x85mm (Europe)
    om_business-card_55x91mm (Japan)

Thoughts?
