Mia from Samurai Being Related to Cam from Ninja Storm?

Yes, I know I'm probably not the only one who discussed this, but I figure it'd be nice to see what other people think on this subject. In a more recent episode of Power Rangers (Super) Samurai, it was revealed that Mia's last name was Wantanabe. There is of course already a popular character from Power Rangers lore with that last name: Cam, the Green Samurai Ranger from of course, Ninja Storm.

The question, as posed in the title, relation?

My two cents? I feel there's a strong chance. Why? Well, for those who recall Ninja Storm, Cam became the Samurai Ranger by retreiving the Samurai Amulet from his mother, the first female student at the Wind Ninja Academy, who in turn was trained in Samurai arts. I feel there's a connection there that Cam's mother could be from the Pink Samurai Ranger family, but instead of being chosen to be the Pink Ranger of that generation decided to save the world in a different way, going to the Wind Ninja Academy (fitting! Pink's power is wind!) and of course meeting Kanoi (and Cam) and of course Cam unlocking the Samurai magics of the Amulet and becoming a Ranger that way. Now obviously, Kanoi has the last name Wantanabe, but I feel that is probably the case of the fact he's a humble ninja, and she comes from what would be considered royalty as her family is Samurai. So it makes sense he would take her namesake and not the other way around.

Anyone else catch this or do they have an alternate point of view? Cause that's all I got, only that it'd be a cool fanwank to see Mia and Cam team up for an episode. Mind you, that would be a logical reason as to how Kanoi discovered the Morphing Grid and merely passed the knowledge down to his son to perfect, thus creating the Ninja Storm powers.
