Hmm.. All the allusions I can think of right now (I may be wrong). I have a few sources for some of these but I'm going to give it t best shot at a few.

Ruby- little red (obviously) Weiss- Snow White, but she is nicknamed ice queen/princess as well because of her standoffish/cruel ways like anderson's ice queen Blake-Belle from beauty and the beast Yang-Golilocks (anyone notice the bear claw on her right breast?) Miltia/Melanie- I personally think they are the ugly step sisters because it was mentioned by Monty that they were bad drafts of rwby's and weiss's designs. They're in cinder's team which brings me to... Cinder-Cinderella? I feel like there is some connection between those three villains. I'm not sure if she's an allusion to cinderella but she's definetly all about cinder and embers. Pyrra Nikkos- Nike of samothrace/goddess of victory Ren- Mulan? Nora- Thor? I mean, just check out that hammer. Ozpin- wizard of oz Glinda- good witch from wizard of oz Penny- Definetly Pinocchio, there was so much emphasis on ''not being a real girl" Neptune? ... Neptune Jaun (forgive me for misspelling)- Joan of arc Cardin Winchester- Winchester presided over Joan of arc's trail ;( Roman torchwick- I haven't a clue but his outfit vaguely reminds me of clockwork orange or just straight out mafia.
