I mean there are some obvious ones like Jake, Harold, or Seth. But I want ones that that no-one would think of but still pass as a normal name. For example: Marth. It isn’t common, but if a substitute called it out, they wouldn’t have trouble with the name or be confused.

Shockingly, Ike. I live in the especially Deep South and I’ve encountered quite a few Ikes in my life. One of my cousins is actually named Ike, so it’s a name I was actually more surprised to see in Fire Emblem than in real life.

I can’t see those first two, but the others seem good
Really? If I met a kid named Bord I’d be like “Where did your parents get the idea for that one?”

I guess that by conceiving him, you can say you’ve “Cast your Lot in life” 
Franz is a German name you don’t see too often.
Neimi feels like a regular name too tbh.

feel like theres probably someone named Trec/k or Niemi seems normal enough. Maybe Limestella too
Leo/Leonardo, Priscilla, Cecilia, Gunter, Thomas, Ryan, Soren, Edward, Rolf, Boyd, Maria, Minerva, Matthew, Hector and some others too.
I find this topic a tad odd since all of the westernized fe games up until awakening use very normal (albeit a bit rare or archaic) anglicized names for most of the player charcters

Have you ever met someone named Duessel? How about Florina? Wolt isn’t even a real name! That’s not even including bosses like Bazba, Gazzack, Monke. Hell, even main villains usually have never-used names (Nergal, Zephiel, Veld, etc.). Trust me, there are plenty of characters with weird names.
I haven’t, but I wouldn’t bat an eye now that you bring it up.

when I think of Franz I think of Franz Schubert, the guy who made Ave Maria lol

I actually knew a car mechanic named Franz when I used to work at a dealership years ago. Never thought about connecting it to FE though. The name seems normal enough.
So aside from bosses (player characters)
Yes, I’ve met a florina (tbf maybe it was another very similar name) and a Wolfe. Dussel is a sirname.
