We don't see Cyril, Stan, or Obidiah anymore.

I'm sorry to disappoint you but my youngest grandson (the one mentioned earlier who isn't Plunkett ) who is four has a best friend called Stanley. Stanley's little brother who is two this month is Freddie.

Has Freddie (or anyone else) said to his brother :

"Well, here's another nice mess you've gotten me into." ?

Haven't "old fashioned" names come a bit back into fashion in recent years, though?

The name Plunkett has a rich history


See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plunkett

Apparently

Variants of the name Plunkett include Plunket, Plucknett and Plunkitt. This name is of French origin, being a corruption of the word 'blanchet', meaning 'white', and was introduced to Ireland at the time of the Anglo-Norman invasion. It has now become exclusively Irish.

and there is a coat of arms.

What is not to like?

Perhaps they have, not sure tbh. Medieval names much less so I think.
