I've seen lots of people recently speculating about the new starting Personas revealed very recently. And I've pretty much worked out fully who they all are. I'm putting descriptions below for people who are a little lost by the literary references, along with speculation about the mystery party member's possible Persona.
Main Protagonist (easiest): Arsène, based on Maurice Lablancs anti-authoritarian gentleman thief.
Ryoji: Captain Kid, based on the infamous Colonial-era pirate-turned-privateer.
Anne: Carmen, based on the titular protagonist of Prosper Mérimée's 1840s novella.
Morgana: Zorro, who needs no introduction.
Yusuke: Goemon, based on the legendary Japanese bandit.
Makoto (new): Johanna, based on the fabled female Pope Joan.
Futaba (new): Necronomicon, based on the mystical tome of forbidden knowledge in H. P. Lovecraft's Cthulhu Mythos.
Haru (new): Milady, based on the stunning main antagonist of Alexandre Dumas' novel The Three Muskateers.
Now the final character is still unknown apart from his artwork. But he's got quite a dashing look about him, so maybe a similarly dashing figure for him. Maybe Raffles, or possibly Irene Adler (the latter's a little out there). Since there's a theme of pre-20th century, best to stick within that timeframe.
EDIT: Big booboo on my part about Johanna's inspiration, now corrected from official information.
