It's actually stated by the creators themselves, that all children born after the great war are named after a colour. JNPR characters are actually named after things associated with colour. And that's how it works in RWBY. Please read about it.'

Eg.
- "Jaune" is the French word for yellow.
- Nora's name may reference her color via the Nora Barlow Columbine, a pink flower named after the granddaughter of Charles Darwin
- "Pyrrha" is derived from the Greek adjective pyrrhos (πυρρός), which means "flame-colored"
- Liè (烈) is Chinese for "ardent". Ren (蓮) is Japanese kanji for "lotus"
