As for the origins. These are all Christian names. The idea with a Christian name is that you take the name of your favourate saint when you are confirmed as a Christian - Still common among Catholics. Since the early saints were all from the Middle East (St. Peter, Paul etc). Then these names have their origines in Israel. Since Rome played a big part in early Christian times, many early saints had Roman names (Constantine being a good example, also Valentine). You will also find a great many saints around the med.
When choosing a name for confirmation, there is a book of acceptable saints names published by the Catholic church. These detail the name and the occurance that led to being given saint status. This could be a good place for you to start.
Sir Alexander of Northants (Alot).

You don't add "lot" to their name. Lots of those names weren't around in those days.
Robert, Daniel, Christopher, Charles, John, etc would have been, but those others weren't.
You could address people with sir, or saying "good" or something else in front, depending on their station in life and yours.

I don't understand why you put the "lot" in the names? And you only call Knight's by "Sir". Earl's could be called "Your Grace", Baron's, Counts, etc. all had their own term. "Your Lordship" is obviously used on Lords.
And no one had nicknames like we do these days. No Eddies, Charlies. Johnny's. Those came later.
