Robin Hood is a fictional character, although he may be based on one or more real medieval outlaws.
There were no "rich Saxon noblemen" at the time Robin Hood is said to have lived. The Norman conquerors of England confiscated all Saxon lands and the disinherited and impoverished Saxon nobles emigrated to other countries such as Scotland and Russia. A few Saxon noblewomen were married to Norman nobles (Henry I took a Saxon lady as his first queen), but in general the entire Saxon nobility were obliterated soon after 1066.

How did robin hoods bay get its name?
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.
