he was a prince thief
First of all he was Robin Locksli. I heard him called Lord but never prince except as a thief. He was the prince of his gang of “merry men”.
There is no record of how Robin Hood's Bay got its name. There is a ballad, in which Robin Hood goes fishing, encounters French pirates who have robbed poor people along the coast, and gets them to surrender. In the ballad, he gives their loot to the people at Robin Hood's Bay. But, of course, we don't even know the origin of the Ballad.
Robin Hood was helping the poor.
The surname Hood is English and Scottish. It was an occupational name for a maker of hoods or a nickname for someone who wore a distinctive hood.
Since, historically Robin Hood may not have existed, when the story began getting told in 1226 the main weapons were bow/arrow, sword. The major weapon of Robin Hood's period was the Long Bow. This was a (fairly) recent invention and was used to major result in the Battle of Agincourt Friday 25 October 1415 with Henry V of England. You will (may) recall that one of the attempts of the Sheriff of Nottingham to entrap Robin Hood was to hold an archery contest.
Question is not clear. Do you mean "Why was Robin Hood considered an invented story rather than a historical fact?" or "Why did Robin Hood achieve status as a legend rather than other outlaws?" I deal with the latter question both in my Midwest Folklore article "Jesse James as Robin Hood" and the "Afterward" to my novel The Robin Hood Chronicles. The appeal of Robin Hood is that he was a scamp who could make you laugh while he was robbing you.-- Sam Sackett
