    For a few hours every 666 years, people are born as starborn. Dresden is Starborn, and he's roughly gen-X, so born about 1970-ish.

    The previous year a starborn could have been would have been about 1304-ish. Before that, the year 638, and before that, 28 BC.

    Jesus of Nazareth wasnt Starborn. But perhaps his parents Mary and/or Josef were.

    John the Baptist? Not quite sure how old he is, but he could be Jesus' Merlin, so to speak.

    638 is a bit early for King Arthur, but might fit Merlin.

    What's 1304? Looking at Births 1300-1310 on Wikipedia there's no names on that list I recognize, except Petrarch, the Italian poet, in 1304.
