In my novel The Robin Hood Chronicles I base Robin Hood on a real Robyn Hod who lived in the 14th century. My reasoning is that in one of the earliest ballads King Edward -- almost surely Edward II -- makes Robin Hood his yeoman. Edward II had a valet and porter named Robyn Hod, and I assume that Robin Hood and Robyn Hod are the same person.
Yes, at some point it is believed that someone in a similar role as Robin Hood did exist, and there were persons with similarly-translated names.
But there is no firm historical evidence he existed with that name, and in the activities described in ballads and other folklore.
The first known reference to Robin Hood is in 1226 so if we date it from that point, in the year 2000 he was 774 years old.

Why did Robin Hood break the law?
My novel The Robin Hood Chronicles is based on the earliest ballads, which are the oldest sources of information about Robin Hood, and on the life story of a real Robyn Hod, whom I identify with the hero of the ballads for reasons I explain in the Afterword of my book. The real Robyn Hod was a retainer of Thomas, Earl of Lancaster, who attempted to overthrow King Edward II in 1322. Thomas was defeated at the battle of Boroughbridge, and Edward declared all the soldiers who fought under Thomas outlaws. Some of the soldiers went to sea to avoid being hunted down and killed by Edward's soldiers; others, like Robyn Hod, remained in England and lived as best they could.

When Robin Hood was born and died?
The story of Robin Hood first shows up about 1225 as an oral poem. Since there were no books and people couldn't read a story like Robin Hood was told in rhyme so people could remember it. As time went on the story would change and when books were finally printed it changed with characters added, killed, and setting/plots changed. Since Robin Hood is a fictional character he doesn't die, but changes with the times and the telling of the story.
How many ballads are there about Robin Hood?
a 19th Century ballad scholar collected 38 separate ballads. In this century it would seem that there are many more than this. However, most, if not all of them are based on variations of an original theme. Further, your choice of the word 'ballad' in your question has been interpreted as meaning 'traditional story' and 38 are known.
