<p>So I know this is very unlikely, but just throwing this out here as an idea due to the resemblance (and they're both earthbenders):

Kuvira:

Personally I don't think this is actually the case as it feels implied to me that Kuvira's parents were not earthbenders as they couldn't control her outbursts (which involved earthbending). But I still think it was interesting to point out the resemblance.
</p><p>Also the ages of the two individuals would make it a bit of a stretch but not outside the realm of possibility.
