Another obscure novel - the narrator and main character in The Life and Loves of Mr. Jiveass Nigger, by Cecil Brown, is named George Washington. He gives a lot of fake names in the book, some of which may also be the names of real people (possibly one is an Elizabethan poet?), though I don't quite remember.
