Some famed names are so popular—and have been for so long—that we assume they are real historical figures. We've written before about iconic places that (probably) never existed, and now it's time to look at people who fall in the same category. Some of these individuals are likely to be fictional, while others might indeed have lived, but their lives were not quite as we imagined them.
Curious? Click through the following gallery and find out who may or may not have existed.
