Sure, I've seen
Merlin IRL. It's a bird name and usage is related to
Merle, which is dated but was popular at one point.
Merlin's still used more than
Peregrine in the US though not as much as
Robin.
Lance is still in the top 1000, but it seems somewhat humorously/cliche macho like
Pierce.
Lancelot would be a bit sillier, probably better for a horse, but it has been used, very rarely.
I wonder sometimes if
Galahad or
Mordred are usable. I tend to think not very.
