Forum:Medli, a decsendant of Ruto?

According to Medli's profile, she is a possible descendant of Princess Ruto. I suppose my question is why would anyone think that? for one thing, Ruto is a Zora, an aquatic being, and Medli is a Rito, an bird-like being. For another, no proof is provided in the profile, so if someone could clarify that, i'd like that.
