Purely FWIW,  I think that Ruby's surname is 'Rose' but, as it hasn't been revealed yet, that's only an informed guess based on the inscription on the tombstone at the start of the Red Trailer. The fact that her surname hasn't been revealed yet suggests that it contains a major plot point ("You are the chosen one, Ruby!") It might also explain why Ruby is so important that the Big Bad sent a full company strength of Beowolves after her. I understand that Monty said that, but Ruby specifically said in the first episode that "her sister is attending Beacon this year" and Yang said "I can't believe my little sisters coming to Beacon with me" and "I'm so proud of my baby sister" I understand Monty and that he created it, but no one in the real world refers to eachother (even in a bro/sis way) like that.
