H G Wells - the father of science fiction -
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/H._G._Wells
In Electric City by Tom Hanks, there are characters named Welles, but it seems to be a confusion between HG Wells and actor Orson Welles.
The other reference of course is to George Orwell.
But some of the characters are lazily named - that is without making much creative effort, like "Roger Moore" and actually making the animated figure look like the real Roger Moore - just because a public figure cannot sue you, and anyway, malign intent has to be proved,
But I am not a lawyer, do not take me word for it.
