I have been thinking about how, so far, all characters seem to have a symbol or emblem somewhere in their weapons, clothes, etc. that is unique to them.

I have been wondering if maybe these emblems don't represent the characters but their linage? As in, each emblem is actually associated with a family/last name?

For example, Ruby's emblem is a rose like flower, and her last name is "Rose".

You might argue that Ruby and Yang are sisters, yet they don't have the same emblem. But they also have different last names (for reasons still unknown).

Yang's last name means "Drangon" and her emblem looks like a heart made of fire.

The idea mainly came because Weiss' emblem, looks a lot like the Schnee Dust Company logo.
