My thoughts on this are simple. Ruby and Yang are full blood sisters. The story goes something like this... Mr. Long and Mrs. Rose are married, but due to one reason or another (nothing important), Mrs. Rose keeps her maiden name. They have two children, Yang Long and Ruby Long. Early into Ruby's childhood, her mother is killed (speculating it could have been in protection of Ruby) during an attack by creatures of Grimm. Both Ruby and Yang are devastated and vow to never let anyone else need to feel their pain by becoming Huntresses. Because Ruby is younger, however, and more distraught by her mothers death she assumes her mothers name in Summers honor. Qrow takes it upon himself to train the younger sibling so that she will not hate, already knowing Yang has fallen into hate. That pretty much sums it up except Ruby still harbors despair in her heart but hides it with a smile.
