I agree that she seems to be both Rapunzel and Goldilocks at the same time. Although the creators may have wanted her to be Goldilocks it certainly seems as though she has quite a bit of influence by both fairy tales.

Goldilocks, not particularly because of her hair although it certainly helps, but because how often she is fighting Ursai, the bear-like Grimm. In initiation she fights two Ursai just prior to seeing Blake. (*I made it italics and I don't know how so this is going to have to be the rest... oops* ) In Yang's trailer, the DJ at Junior's club is wearing a teddy bear hat/mask(?) and as Junior's real name means Black Bear then that certainly means something too.

''However I would say that Yang shows Rapunzel's traits too, most obviously, her hair. Although Goldilocks was perhaps named after her hair, it is not her hair that Goldilocks is known for. However, both Rapunzel's and Yang's hair mean a lot to both of them. Rapunzel's hair curse that was triggered when cut, and Yang's hair, which obviously means a lot as when cut she becomes extremely angry. ''

(*Don't know why but it went back to non-italics, :/?*)For these reasons I say that although Yang was perhaps meant to be Goldilocks, one cannot simply deny that Rapunzel's traits are not present in her character. As these facts show, Yang can not simply be categorized into one of these fairy tales. It doesn't matter is Monty and the RWBY crew refered to her as Goldilocks or meant for Yang to be her, Rapunzel's traits are simply too clear to ignore.
