I…think I did notice that actually…if I recall people just called me paranoid…here let me dig through my message log…AHA.

According to Jaune, roughly 3 generations of his family are heroes…but no one in the series seem to know or care about them…we haven’t heard Cardin make a jab at Jaune for being a disappointment, Goodwitch didn’t advise him to be more carefull like his fore fathers, Pyrrha didn’t try to encourage him by saying success is in his blood, and so on and so forth; it just seems to me like either he’s over bloating the success of his family OR people aren’t aware of his relatives, because he’s using a different name, which makes a certain amount of sense when you remember the nature of his transcripts, aka the fact that they are fake.

Admittedly it’s a bit of a stretch…I might even go as far as to call it a headcanon… but until Monty decides to stop pulling our tails and actually feed us more info, it’s kind of all I have on the matter.

If memory serves that trail of thought got derailed by some…literal plot bunnies involving Jaune, Velvet and a fluffy tail...before getting rerailed into what the dunce he’s hiding in between that plate and his fabulous abs, Jaune Arc not being his real name is plausible.
