"does George street in Sydney count? It intersects with a lot of other streets..."
Unfortunately the Sydney OSM data does not go back quite that far but Wiki states that George street was named after King George III. He only had one wife, Duchess Sophia Charlotte of Meckelenburg-Strelitz (Queen Charlotte). I cant find any intersecting street named after her, maybe we'd have better luck with a Henry Street :-) Yes - Ben and Amy streets are a good example. The example I found (Hinde Street and Barbara Jefferis Street in Franklin ACT) is a bit different in that the roads are not related to where the people lived. However they were both Australian writers or journalists which is the theme for that area. On another topic - close to these two roads is Heanke Street which is named after Helen Haenke. I've tagged it Heanke Street since that is what is on all the street signs but it should be Haenke Street. I've included tag of alt_name = Haenke Street so that hopefully search code will find the match. Nick
