Well she isn't the only adapted name. Attila is Altera.

In any case she was the first and at the time only servant we knew of that was genderbent back in the Visual Novel days. Also the actual history behind King Arthur has one of the names he went by as Artorius as one of the many origins pins him as a Romano-Brit from the recently destroyed Western Roman Empire. Even if he is a purely fictional person Arthur as a name is still derived from Artorius.

And besides nowadays we have an actual Arthur in FGO, so the distinction is nice. It'd be nice to see the female Merlin one day.
