Yeah but now from the tv series with Kate argent's reappearance as a were-jaguar it confirms that the Jaguars are spirits of vengeance which is Kate argent, not to mention Jackson's manipulation and usage as a creature of vengeance and wrath.

Furthermore the method of transformation could play a large part, Kate was scratched deeply, so deep scratches in a baseline human could transform said person into a feline looking Kanima, whilst Jackson was bitten, not to mention the fact that he was unresolved and people with unresolved histories do not tend to turn into the things they were bitten by until they become resolved.

So a 'Kanima' in the Teen Wolf universe could mean creatures of vengeance OR the word Kanima could define any person that was turned unconventionally or did not turn into the designated creature they recieved a bite from
