Actually, they do reflect one's personality. Think about it:

- Ruby is always charging into battle to protect the ones she loves. Her Semblance is speed.

- Blake stated herself in Volume 2 that her Semblance reflects her tendency to run away from problems.

- Yang is also very protective, and wants the strength to protect them. Hence, her Semblance of taking strength from hits to deal it back.

- As for Weiss... It might be hereditary, but I think it's supposed to represent her want to be free, to restore her family name. Kinda goes for Winter, too - she left the influence of their father, just as Weiss is trying to do.

For the rest of them, I'm afraid I can't quite tie them in just yet. Of course, symbolism is always more prudent with the main characters than all the others, but the point is: Semblances are meant to be an extension of the soul. Makes sense they would reflect it, and thus, your personality.
