Keep in mind that not all the teams share RWBY's color theme; case in point, team CRDL. That having been said, I think it's reasonable to say that CFVY's theme is "inanimate objects that become anthropomorphised". Velvet, we already presumed, was based on the Velveteen Rabbit. Allusions have been drawn between Coco/Nutcracker and Fox/Gingerbread Man. The last one for which we don't really have much to go on is Yatsuhashi. However, if we consider that his name is clearly Japanese, it leads us to look towards Japanese stories. Another data point; in the silhouette spoiler image, Yatsuhashi's silhouette is colored peach. This originally lead me to believe that he was based on James and the Giant Peach (giant peach-colored silhouette) bow now, on getting more details such as his appearance and name, I've abandoned that hypothesis in favor of him being based on the traditional Japanese story, Momotaro, about a boy who was born from a peach found floating down river. That covers their "story allusions" and, instead of colors or birds, their naming scheme is based on various sweets. Velvet corresponds to Velvet Cake, Coco to Chocolate, Yatsuhashi is also a sweet, and [Ginger] presumably shares his name scheme with his story allusion; Gingerbread Cookies, at least until we get more info/confirmation.
