You forgot the brown leather elbow patches and the tweed cap. There are a lot more knightly names. I played tribalwars a while back and had around 45-50 villages before i gave up all named to arthurian legend.
A more exhaustive list (from wikipedia):
Key people: King Arthur · Constantine · Sir Ector · Duke of Cornwall · Guinevere · Igraine · Iseult · Lady of the Lake · King Lot · King Mark · Merlin · Mordred · Morgan le Fay · Morgause · Uther Pendragon
Knights of the Round Table: Agravain · Bagdemagus · Bedivere · Bors · Breunor (La Cote Mal Taillée) · Calogrenant · Caradoc · Dagonet · Dinadan · Gaheris · Galahad · Gareth · Gawain · Geraint · Griflet · Hector de Maris · Kay · Lamorak · Lancelot · Leodegrance · Lionel · Lucan · Maleagant · Marhaus · Palamedes · Pelleas · Pellinore · Percival · Safir · Sagramore · Segwarides · Tor · Tristan · Uriens · Ywain · Ywain the Bastard · Elyan the White · Sir Ector
Objects: Excalibur · Holy Grail · Round Table · Siege Perilous
Others: Sir Balin · Dolorous Stroke · Elaine of Astolat · Elaine of Corbenic · Fisher King · Green Knight · King Arthur's messianic return · King Arthur's family · Historical basis for King Arthur · Claudas · Emperor Lucius · Questing Beast

I assumed the elbow patches were standard.
The Morte D'Artur lists them all.

I can't find the list in my Morte D'Artur
Could swear there is one that goes on a bit so that ones' eyes glaze over.
May well have been edited out of your edition Monkeytroll for such reasons
I need a better edition tbh The one I have was edited by a well meaning Victorian who wished to produce a version that could be read by boys without corrupting them with tales of lust and violence.
How times have changed!
have found an abridged Morte D'Arthur which won't have the list in but will have knights in the lists I trust
Forgot I had this one
Adam knew Eve
which is a big help in matters of procreation
I mean it is hard to reproduce with someone you have never met. Long distance relationships can only go so far so to speak.
