I believe LArdennais meant state capitals (at least that's what I derived from "main cities of US States).

If so, for C there's Columbus, OH (and several others)
Image

Note that the largest metropolitan areas in Ohio also begin by C: Cincinatti and Cleveland.


Now for the D, I choose:

Des Moines, IA
Image


If I interpreted LArdennais correctly, there's no E (not even if you also accept largest cities per state as an answer). Also no G, Q, U, X, Y or Z. Also, no Q, X or Z with population over 100,000.
