Here's another crazy thoery. What if Merida is Robin Hood's sister. I mean think about in the movie "Brave" Merida has three triplet brothers, Hubert, Hamish, and Harris. What if Robin Hood was one of them. We really don't know anything about Robin Hood's past before he met Maid Marian and we don't know exactly at what point in the OUAT timeline Merida's scene(s) take place. If not not mistaken, in later versions of the "Robin Hood" legend/ballad, Robin is presented as a disgraced nobleman who became an outlaw, so that backstory could work for OUAT's  Robin hood by making him not only one of Merida's triplet brothers but also a disgraced prince from Dunbroch.

Yes I know Sean's British and Amy's Scottish, therefore their accents are different, but remember they're playing fictional characters fom a fictional world so personally I don't think accents should  really matter when playing a fictional character.
