Actually, the trend I've noticed with the symbols is that they're mostly related to surname.

Rose = rose

Schnee = snow

Belladonna = belladonna bloom

Xiao Long = little dragon = fire

Valkyrie = Norse mythology = Thor's hammer

Nikos = victory = battle = spear and shield

There are some exceptions, though:

Ren = lotus

Cardin = cardinal

Ozpin ... time?

Anon 69's seems to involve the symbol matching up with Aura color, so...

Blake = purple = belladonna bloom

Pyrrha = red = blood? = battle = spear and shield

Ren = purple = lotus

Cinder = red/yellow = heart?

Goodwitch = magical = gifted? = royal? = crown... okay, that's stretching it.

Or if we try to connect symbol to Semblance instead of plain Aura...

Ruby = rose petals = rose

Weiss = snowflakes

Blake = black (when her clones fade, they leave a predominantly black afterimage) = belladonna berry = belladonna bloom

Yang = fire

Nora = electiricity = Thor's hammer

Pyrrha = magnetism = metal = weapons/armor

Sun = clones = the Monkey King (idk about this one)

Glynda = telekinesis = control = royal = crown

It's an interesting idea, which may or may not give us some clues about Jaune.
