I recently acquired this cirrhilabrus jordani trio as a male and 2 females at a fairly good price. I'm wondering though if I truly ended up with 2 males and a female (or possibly a male, female and a transitioning female). Confirmation would be greatly appreciated.

1 male, 1 transitional male, 1 female.

Got her in West palm beach, FL as a mislabeled "pink flanked wrasse" 29.99 HaHa
Please tell me it's what I think it is!? She had internals, prazipro did the trick and now she's eating every girl and gaining the weight back.
Looks like C. katoi to me.
Cf cyanopleaura?

Yup.
 
Another image. I should disclose I know the identity, though there's not one yet

Sorry for the bad pic. I sure it's a lineatus but wondering if you can tell what stage it's in and if I want to pair up what the best route to go

Transitional male. Don't pair them up, females can be pretty aggressive and attack and kill a male. Just keep it with another species of fairy or flasher wrasse to get the most out of displays and colors.

Exactly.
The best way to "pair" wrasses is to not do it at all. :)
