So we know some characters can have secondary inspirations. Team SSN has secondary influences from the k-pop group. Ruby and Zwei are probably a nod to Dorthey and Toto. Could Jaune be secondary inspired by Captian America? Both have shields, started out weak, Cap became the strongest soldier while Jaune is said to have strong aura meaning he's probably going to become the strongest Hunter, Cap has yellow hair in the comics like Jaune does, both are leaders of their teams, both fight in front blocking with their shield while attacking with kicks, punches, and shield/ sword respectively, both are usually paired with their red-haired female teamates, both forged documents in their attempts to get into institutions (the army for Cap, Beacon for Jaune), and both have similar personalites; since both usually are honest, never go back on their word, stand up to bullies (well Jaune does eventually), are gentlemen to ladies, and are willing to help people when they need it even if that person was a jerk to them in the past.

The only similarities to Joan of Arc are their names, both being wielders of swords, both swords being wielded by an ancient hero (Jaune's by his hero relative, Joan's by Charlemagne) both had more than one sibling with most of their siblings being of the other sex, both being persecuted by a Cardinal of Winchester, and both wearing armor.
